I have enjoyed the Weytech Sapphire monoblocks for 10 years! Even with "inefficient" 90db/spl ADS 1290L speakers (Updated crossovers and drivers). Rated at 18 watts rms but amps have switchable impedance from 2-4 OR 8-16 ohms. Plenty of volume and sweet sound from these S.E.T. 300B amps! I offer these for sale. Designer and Canadian creator Rogert Hebert passed away and his equipment is legend! Look up the six moons review, Harry Pearson from Absolute sound gave this his golden ear award!
I am considering a luxman 3600 tube amp as my first adventure into tube amplifiers?
I am considering a Luxman 3600 tube amp for my first adventure into tube amplifiers. The amp. has been modified to use KT88 tubes with a corresponding output of 30 Watts, a recent servicing and update of the 3600 to accommodate the KT88 tubes with a corresponding reduction from the original 50 to 30 watts. The unit has received approximately 80 hours of use since this service. I have been assured by the seller that the $700.00 upgrade was performed by a an experienced service professional, which he has used many times, and has complete confidence in. I was wondering what members experience has been with the Luxman 3600 and any comments they may have. I will be using the Luxman at low to moderate volume levels with a Acoustic Research Preamp. (LS 25II) and Wilson Benesch Square 2 speakers. I am purchasing the used unit without being able to test it with my existing system due to distance constraints. I must admit I am very excited about purchasing my first tube amplifier and experiencing the holographic sound people talk about.
