SOLD: ARC VS60
«

SOLD
This is a very nice ARC VS60, Made in USA of course, 4 x 6550 power tubes, 2 x 6H30 for input. 8 and 4 Ohm taps. The amp does not come with a tube cover. The original manual and biasing tool is included, also the original tube damper rings. Ser.#70004501. I don't have the box but will pack it safe for shipping. $1800 or best offer. Can ship with USPS or DHL.
This amp is quiet, dynamic and musical. It'll drive nearly any speaker.
• 50 watts per channel of tube power
• newer EH power tubes, ~50-100 hrs
• new Nichicon filter caps in the power supply
• Sovtek 6H30's (the EH Gold would make a great upgrade)

It shouldn't be a problem. But the manual makes no mention of it so I would check with ARC first.

Their reply:
Summary: In the VS60 amplifier you can use KT88's or KT90's but EL34's are not equivalent tubes and should not be used. We also do not recommend using KT120's or KT150's.
Thank you,
