Elekit TU-8800 Tube Amplifier

Selling an Elekit TU-8800 amplifier with Takman resistors, TKD volume pot and Mundorf Silver/Gold/Oil coupling caps. Unit was expertly assembled myself using TRT Wonder ultra clear solder.



Full transparency, the amplifier functions correctly aside from a low level hum at both speakers when your ear is placed close, which is discussed at length in the link below. Thinking the amp doesn't like being fed with mains voltage above 120. Work is relocating me overseas, so I have no time to further pursue getting this one issue resolved. Interestingly there is no noticeable hum when headphones are used.

All original packing, documents, screws, tube cage and front plate are included, though I have misplaced the volume knob and unsuccessfully attempted to paint the top cover black. The original color underneath has not been sanded or primed, so paint remover should bring it back to original.



Not sure what to ask price wise, so the amp will go to the highest bidder.
