Hi.
Elekit TU-8600S -- Fully Assembled -- Tubes Included -- All Upgrades $2,968 plus shipping.
I'm posting this here before it goes on eBay. DIYers get first dibs! A fantastic amp. I'm selling because I'm changing to low sensitivity speakers and need to finance my purchase. I hope I don't regret it! 😱
The asking price is everything I have in it plus $275 for assembly. This is what Victor was charging, but it is my understanding that he is no longer providing that service.
This TU-8600S has it all including some great tubes:
Lundahl LL2785B Output Transformers.
Takman 2% Carbon Resistors
COSSOR Black Plate 300B
Western Electric (!) ECC83/B759
RCA 12AU7 X 2 (clear Top)
TKD 2CP601 Volume Pot
ODAM V-Cap Capacitors (Fully Burned in!!)
The amp will ship triple boxed with plenty of cushioning for the journey. Please make sure you insure it. Shipping Weight: 31 lbs. Shipping box 22" x 17" x 13"
You may also pick up at my home in Glen Echo, Maryland.
The amplifier works wonderfully. I'd rate it a 9/10 for condition.
-- The tubes have about 400 hours on them. The caps probably have a bit more than 200 hours on them, so burn in is complete.
-- There are a pair of tiny nicks on the faceplate that I noticed for the first time when I was disassembling it for pictures.
-- For the life of me, I can't find the four screws that fasten the optional tube cage on the amp. It's possible that I didn't get them with the kit?
-- During assembly I accidentally touched the jumper on the volume pot with my soldering iron which melted a tiny portion of it. It doesn't affect the performance and it is inside of the amplifier so it's only a cosmetic defect if you're looking very carefully at the volume pot, so it is not a material defect, but I figured I'd mention it anyway. 🙂
There you have it! I haven't traded on DIY audio, but I have credentials on eBay which I can share.
Thanks for looking!
Aaron
