List Of Small Company Tube Amps

Raven Audio meets and exceeds the OP’s criteria and they are really nice people to do business with.

on the other hand…

Roger High Fidelity is overpriced even at his 50% off eBay prices, and the lifetime “transferable” warranty is a joke. Transferring the warranty requires sending the amp back for recertification which incurs a bench charge, which is fine, until he sells one of his amps to your buyer instead, which he did to me, twice.

Ironically one of those buyers hated the amp and put it up for sale within a few weeks.

The $8500 I spent on the “demo” EHF MK2 was by far, the worst expenditure in my audio journey.

Someone mentioned Black Ice / Jolida.

I can't speak to their amps but I am really happy with their Tube DAC. 

@wsrrsw Glad you had a different experience.

From the Rogers User Manual

This is a limited warranty, transferable to subsequent owners of the amplifier. The amplifier must be registered after purchase with the Rogers Factory at the indicated address using the attached registration form. The transfer resale must be made through an authorized Rogers High Fidelity dealer.

Rogers High Fidelity is likely one of the few, if not the only authorized dealer left, so yes, it needs to go back to Roger for transfer. The fee is $500-$750 (depending on what day of the week it is) + shipping both ways, of course.

I don't value a lifetime or transferrable warranty nearly as much as a company willing to reliably work on any of their products

100%. I bought my T+A Integrated used from TMR just a few months ago and I reached out to T+A USA, gave them my serial # and asked where I could get local support if needed.

I got a response within a few hours from Elliott and a personal intro via email to the local shop. I've communicated with Elliott since and I get treated like I'm the original owner.

An example of top shelf support which I will happily pay for if needed.
