FS: Rogue Stereo 90 with Super Magnum upgrade
« on: 5 Jun 2016, 12:45 am »
For sale is my Rogue Stereo 90 tube amp that was updated by Rogue to Super Magnum edition. This version has the silver faceplate.

A fabulous amp, especially if you are looking for quality bass not normally associated with tubes!

This amp can be run in either triode or ultralinear mode, giving you additional flexibility for matching the amp to your system and preferences, in addition to the joys of tube rolling.

Power tubes are the excellent Tung-sol KT-120s. I will need to double check what upgraded 12AX7s (Psvanes?) and 6SN7s (Silvanias?) I installed in the amp.

The standard Stereo 90 was a 2013 Absolute Sound Editors' Award Winner (http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/2013-tas-editors-choice-awards-power-amplifiers-1000-3000/), and the Super Magnum is a quite nice improvement over the standard edition.

Here is what the $700 Super Magnum upgrade included:
- Hex Fred diodes in bias supply
- Screen grid resistors upgraded
- Polypropylene bypass capacitors in filters
- Bypass coupling caps
- PRP resitors in all critical spots
- Cardas binding posts
- Cardas RCA jacks
- Upgraded wiring

Looking for $1750. Located in Chicago.

More pics available upon request.

Rough estimate as to how many hours on the VT120s?

Does this amp have both balanced and unbalanced inputs?

Thanks.

Hmm, I'd guess 300-400 on the KT120s.

The amp only has single ended inputs.
