Up for sale is my seldomly used Elekit TU-882AS tube amp.
Comes with the stock tubes
Since the photos were taken, I've changed the power cord from the thin stock to a solid, grounded one.
This little amp looks great, and sounds even better! It has about 30 hours of burn-in time overall.
One of the commonly reported issues with this amp is that the volume potentiometer is not correctly matched with some headphones. In my case (I use a Sennheiser HD800) the volume with the stock pot was almost too loud even at the 9 o'clock position. I've changed the stock pot, which offers an attenuation of 40db, with an ALPS pot offering 60db instead. This way, my volume confort zone is at 11 o'clock now, which is much better, as the start zone of most pots has channel imbalance. Note that I am including the original pot, in case a lower degree of attenuation is desired. The whole changeover takes about 20 minutes.
Asking $380. Shipping is $10 CONUS. I take PayPal with no additional fees.
I shouldn't need to say it, but the iBasso D10 part of some of these photos is not included in the sale.
