Up for sale is my Eico HF81 integrated amplifier. Great sounding vintage tube amp, good bass.
I have owned and worked on 4 HF81s.Power transformer has been replaced with brand new, beefy Heyboer, the original manufacturer. Power supply capacitors changed (30uf film and F&T), along w/ other electrolytic caps and some important HV wires. New coupling caps throughout - inc. Russian K40Y PIO and Solen. Voltages are a bit high but within spec. 6 tube sockets were replaced. Tubes are mostly US, including great GE oval plate 6BQ5s. The "Focus" (balance) pot was bypassed with resistors (commonly done with these amps). Unnecessary amplifier separation switch on chassis removed from circuit. All original pots, clean and smooth. Case is all original and was resprayed few years ago. Tarnish spots on chassis. Knobs are clean but have been lightly glued on. 3 useable inputs - 2 line and phono. Line input jacks are new but phono jacks are original. The phono section is not the last word in vinyl playback but it's good. Some noises heard in selector switch when turned to unused inputs (it's old). New speaker terminals, 4 and 8 ohm. Sounds like you hope it will - these amplifiers are legendary for a reason. It's a beauty- just polished the brass face plate. I have more pictures I can send. Shipping to USA. Asking $800. No PayPal fee. Thanks for looking. -Pete email direct: Babylonart@aol.com
