Their transformers(the foundation of a tube amp) are very good. The sound can vary from tubey/euphonic, to very clean and extended, depending on the owner's choice of tubes, caps, resistors and wiring. Left stock; you'll have the first presentation.
I'd have to agree that $3K is high, for a pair of Dyna Mk III's. A really nice(operational and stock) pair, might bring around a grand on eBay. Matter of fact: (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dynaco-MKIII-tube-amplifiers-pair-sequential-serial-numbers-s-n-tags-on-100-v-g-/110835587093?pt=Vintage_Electronics_R2&hash=item19ce50d815)
They can be wired to run in triode mode, and will do 30W. In pentode mode, they are rated 60W @ <1% THD / 50W @ <.5% THD. You may be thinking of the MK II(actually rated as a 50W amp, but did 35W @ .5% THD.
