Hello all,

Selling off some Audio stuff I now know I may never start. All bought here on DIY Audio years ago...

The trannies are from a Chinese EL84 amp
Output Transformer - Assumed 8 ohm tap and 8.2k (28 vac on secondary reads .875 vac on primary - check my math here...)
Power Transformer - has 120 vac and 220 vac marked

Set of four PL84 tubes (EL84 with 15v Heaters - power transformer likely does not have the required taps for 15v heaters)

330V on Plate/Grid and a shared 130 ohm cathode resistor should get you around 17 watts/channel...

Bamboo Box that entire amp was supposed to be installed in

How is $100 + ship from Chicago?

as someone pointed out to me, the PL84 and EL84 are not identical, even tho they have same pinout - The PL84 is a higher current version of the EL86...which is a bit different than the EL84...Amp Kit still will work fine with transformers......

The PL84 draws quite a bit more current that its EL84 cousin, but hey, that means it sounds that much better!! :spin:
