SOLD***********

Now this is special. The stunning sound of the 2A3 direct-heated triode, with the power to drive most speakers. (I currently have them driving 87dB monitors, and can’t push my preamp volume past 10 o’clock in my small-ish room)

This is a beautiful Red Wine pair of Triode Lab's flagship 2A3GT-FFX Push-Pull Amps, featuring:

- Hashimoto Classic 30W PP Output Transformers
- Hammond Flagship Potted Power Transformers (worth $600 each)
- Triode Lab M6 Choke OEM'ed by ANK, to Triode Lab's specs
- Optional separated Hammond 2A3 Filament Transformers for the quietest performance
- Mundorf MTUBECAP (coke can power supply ECAP)
- Mundorf Silver Oil Coupling Caps
- Furutech Gold AC Inlet
- CMC USA Gold Binding posts (separate 4 Ohm and 8 Ohm taps - can be easily switched to 16)
- EH2A3 Electro-Harmonix 2A3 triodes (new)
- Made in Canada to exacting quality standards

Note the dimensions:
8-3/4" W
25" D
7-8" H with tubes

This is essentially a brand new pair of amps (~20 hrs on them so far), with warranty, and they produce 14 watts of power each, sounding superb thanks to the very high quality Hashimoto (Sansui) Output Transformers. Triode Lab/Finalé Audio are sold in eight countries, and have received rave reviews in the audio press. They’re known for being well-built, exceptionally quiet even with sensitive speakers, and very musical.

These are Triode Lab's flagship 2A3 amps. Located near Toronto, and shipping is not a problem. Wired for 110/120V. MSRP US$10,280. One amp has a small, almost hairline scratch, out of sight at the back (very hard to see but ask me for a pic). The back of one transformer cover also has some touch ups, see 3rd pic. And no cages are offered with these amps. FINAL PRICE for this pair $4800 USD, including tubes, paypal fees and shipping. If you have your own tubes, we can make it an even $4400. Either way, this is a killer deal.

Tubes included;
4 x 2A3 Electro-Harmonix (new)
4 x 6SN7GT Shuguang (new)
2 x 5AR4/GZ32 Russian (new)

"I currently have them driving 87dB monitors, and can’t push my preamp volume past 10 o’clock in my small-ish room."

Note that this has nothing to do with the *power* of the amps, but is related to their voltage gain.

Sarchi · « **Reply #18 on:** 25 Sep 2019, 12:14 am »

True. The amps have average sensitivity and I'm using them with a Finalé hybrid tube preamp that's also listed for sale here. I did try a passive preamp at one point and the gain wasn't enough. So Paul's point is well taken.

PaulF70 · « **Reply #19 on:** 25 Sep 2019, 12:24 am »

Still, if you can turn it up, and they don't distort, it means the ability to swing voltage *with current.*

Finale/Triode Lab amps are first-rate all the way. I had their 45 monos and they were the quietest tube amps I'd ever used.
