Reluctantly, I am offering up my Dodd 120 amps for sale. As literally the last pair of the Gen 2 amps (Not part of any special group buy or anything like that).
These are fully chromed (at the time Gary was charging $400.00 for chrome finish) and include upgraded caps, resisitors and diodes. All work has been done by Dan Santoni at DTS Audio and tuned to add a bit more liquidity to the sound. Now they are sonically perfect to my ears

Amps come with kt77 output tubes with the musical GE 7044 input and driver tubes. The tubes have approx 250hrs on them

The amps are functionally perfect, and in excellent cosmetic condition. To my ears, these easily beat out a pair of VAC Musicbloc 160s, and the Moscode 401HR which I also owned in my system., at the same time. It was an easy decision.

So why am I selling? I have since upgraded to a lower powered "211" tube sound. It took a pair of $15k Wytech monoblocks to displace the Dodds in my system, yup, they are that good. If I had the means, I would keep both, but now I need the cash, so I'm motivated to sell.

Asking $2,300 plus shipping. Paypal adds 3% to the total. See picture of right monoblock
Over $700 in upgrades . Open to reasonable offers

Thanks for looking!

Great amps! 

These things rocked my Sunny H2W10 speakers like no amp before or since.  Great speed, detail, slam and weight, accompanied by a nice dose of toobular goodness.  Loaded the room with a concussive, textured and chest thumping bass, like you experience in a live music venue, but rarely in a home audio system.  Not just one-note thump, real palpability and detail.

Good luck with the sale Pat!    :thumb:

Thanks John for the endorsements
I can honestly say that after 3 cap changes i've managed to keep all the sonic virtues of the Dodd amps that make them special and introduced a bit more of that liquidity that you find in a good SET amp.
