I contacted the seller, but no response yet. Any idea what it could be?

Ooo! Ooo! A contest!  My guess is that it is an early nineties Fet-Valve 300.

I think the same,a Fet/Valve 300 or 500. Maybe built in a Dynaco 410 chassis?  Could be a reasonable deal, especially if no one really knows what it is and the bidding stays low.

You guys are correct its a very early Fet Valve 300i or 500.  It is built into never assembled Dyna St-410 metal that went from Dynaco to Sound Values when Dyna closed up shop.

There are some improvements available for this amp, but not the full Ultra design as there simply is no room for our newest PC card designs.  We still service this amp of course.

yeap, he just added a couple of (blury) pictures, it is Fet Valve 300i. Recomendations on a fair price ?  Thanks

Correct, it is a 1994 Fet Valve 300i amplifier it will make about 150 watts per channel assuming that it remains in good operating condition.

I suppose I would ask $500 for one here if I had one in excellent condition, retubed and some audio board updates to allow it to run 12AT7 tubes instead of the standard for that era 12AX7 tubes. If it was on sale directly by us, it would include a one year parts and labor warranty and our standard 30 day satisfaction guarantee.

It was a really nice sounding amp for now being about 25 years old.
