SALE PENDING: Alan Eaton SE 45 Monoblocks
« on: 17 Dec 2020, 12:59 pm »
Really nice pair of 45 monoblocks built by Alan Eaton. Good review on his stereo version here:
http://glowinthedarkaudio.com/alan-eaton-se45.html.
Sound excellent on my 97dB folded open baffle speakers. These were my first exposure to the 45 tube, and I'm sold. Point to point wiring, copper ground buss, Tamura OPTs ... a virtually identical pair recently sold on the auction site by the builder for $1400. See his description here:

I picked up a pair of Welborne Star Chief 45 monoblocks shortly after I bought these, and can't afford to keep both sets.  The sound of the two amps are very similar, and I could happily live with either.  I'm an admitted system tweaker, and run a lot of equipment through my room!

I am including your choice of a pair of National Union or Sylvania 45 tubes, 2 pairs of 6SN7 tubes and a pair of 6AX5GT tubes. I'm also including red and blue lamps (came with red, and I bought blue to match the rest of my system) and a brand new pair of Cardas CCBP-S brass speaker terminals (paid $80) that I was going to swap out for the stock terminals but never found the time to do. No power cords included.

I am around until the 22nd, after that I won't be able to ship until the 28th or so. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll answer them to the best of my ability.

$1250 shipped in CONUS via UPS Ground. Buyer to pick up the 3% PP fee. I'll accept Venmo or Zelle as well. 

NOTE:  I'd also consider a partial trade for a low hour MM or MC cartridge.  I currently use a Zu Denon DL-103, so something that level.
