Don Sachs modified Harman/Kardon Citation II with McShane Level 2 plus upgrades and Ei KT90 power tubes. Also included are two complete sets of preamp tubes, labeled for proper position placement for channel balance. All are strong black plate GE, Sylvania,and RCA tubes from McShane Design. Captive upgraded power cable, and all paperwork from Don with biasing and channel balance setup instructions included.Cosmetically it’s got some scratches and scuffs but nothing serious. If you’re looking for perfection cosmetically, please look elsewhere. It shows well as you may see in the photos. The transformer covers recently got a fresh coat of black satin enamel. The amplifier channel balance was also set perfectly with a scope, so new owner just needs to bias the output tubes properly at power on. The rare Yugoslavia made Ei KT90 are an awesome tube, and a big bonus here! These are sturdy tubes, with solid construction, thick glass, and they hold bias perfectly once set.
Overall…The amp sounds incredible and this is a rare opportunity to own a totally maxxed out, nice looking Sach CitationII. I have a sturdy packing container, lined with HD foam, and ready for safe shipment. Ships UPS or FedEx Ground (buyers choice) within 2 business days of your payment. Local pickup in Knoxville TN area preferred. If you’re looking, then you know this may be one of the finest sounding vintage amps on the planet. Check my feedback and buy with confidence.
