Up for sale is a fully built Elekit 8200 tube amp, purchased in April 2015. This amp and tube upgrade were featured on Glow in the Dark Audio – I highly recommend reading about it there.
The person I bought the amp from told me it only had a few hours on it – since then, I’ve put another 20 or so hours on it so it’s still fairly new. I’ve opened the amp up to switch listening modes and everything looks like it was assembled with care. There are no loose parts.
It’s currently set to Triode mode which sounds best with my 95db sensitive speakers, however Ultralinear mode sounds pretty great too.
I purchased this amp to experiment with a tube amp + tube rolling, but I’m selling to free up some funds in the ol’ upgrade budget. Prices reflect exactly what I paid for it.
$650 w/stock tubes (+ shipping)
Or
$750 w/stock tubes + upgraded NOS tubes (+shipping)
Condition is Like New or Mint Minus. No major blemishes. Works perfectly, sounds great.
Payment via PayPal F&F preferred, Venmo is OK too. Shipped double boxed. I have 100% ratings on eBay and Discogs - happy to share those with anyone who asks.

Includes:
For an additional $100, I will include the tubes I purchased as un upgrade. These are the exact tubes recommended for this model by Glow in the Dark Audio and I agree that they sound great in this amp:
Matched Pair of National Union Radio tubes (90b1)
Matched Pair of RCA 12AU7/ECC82 Clear Top tubes
