********* PRE-ORDER CLOSED *********
Although the pre-order is closed, regular orders are still accepted, but at regular price.
Regular Price :
- TU-8600S with Lundahl LL2785B + Pair of PCB Board + Pair of HV Connector $1,880.00
- Takman 2% REX50G Carbon Resistor Set $65.00
- TKD 2CP601S with conversion Kit $65.00
The response has been overwhelmingly positive.....
Thank you for your support. The pre-order will close on Sunday April 5, 2020.
I just found out that the LL2785B is $100 more than the LL2770. Also the suppliers from Japan will charge a development fee for the NEW PCB Board and manual for Lundahl OPT. These additional costs will further reduce the low margin. I need to stop the pre-order this coming Sunday. I will honor all pre-orders at the same price ($1,800) with the choice of TKD 2CP601S with conversion kit or Takman 2% Carbon resistor set. Once again, thank you for your unconditional support to our DIY PASSION...
Thank you for your trust and support....

EleKit Tu-8600RS: $1785 as reviewed ($1185 basic version)
As the name suggests, the EleKit TU-8600R is a build-it-yourself power amp, a single-ended design that uses one 300B directly heated output tube per side for a specified output of 9.2Wpc at 10% THD. (A pre-assembled version is available at extra cost.) Prices start at $1185 without tubes and top out at a $2985 version that includes Lundahl output transformers and deluxe German-made Elrog 300B tubes. Herb Reichert tried a variety of 300Bs in his Lundahl-equipped review sample and praised the EleKit for sounding not warm and soft but "fast and vigorous, as transparent as any amplifier, and extremely captivating," with a sonic character that's "clean, neutral, and precise." HR's conclusion: "This is what I call value for money." Other kits are available, but availability is sporadic. (Vol.42 No.4 WWW)
Please note that TU-8600S is a limited-edition product — with limited numbers allotted outside of Japan.
Only 100 pieces of TU-8600S are available in July 2020, and these can be upgraded with Lundahl C Core OPT installation.

The upgraded version of the Elekit 300B amplifier kit, called TU-8600S, will soon be available. In cooperation with VK Music we have upgraded our upgrade transformer, and are now busy winding the first 130 units of the LL2785B.
