SOLD - Sound Quest SQ84-V2, as new, original owner, upgraded tubes - $675

Will Ship To: Lower 48

I've finally bought those STAX headphones I've been thinking about for ten years.   The hard part is getting rid of my old gear.   I LOVE this amp.   15wpc tube headphone speaker amp using the wonderful 6V6 tubes.   This is the V2 version, nicer styling, two inputs, remote control.   I upgraded to NOS RCA tubes and new Tung-sol 6V6's.  The tung-sols are incredible in this amp.

 

This is a great integrated amp to drive speakers with.   Hook it up to an 87+db efficient speaker and you have just heavenly sound.   I had a modified Blue Circle SBH, which is a great amp (read the reviews).   I was curious about tubes, so I bought this and was shocked, absolutely shocked at the improvement.   It has that real 'you are there' natural sound on things like flute, piano, harp, etc.  

 

List is $1195, and that's not counting the hundred dollars worth of upgraded tubes.   Unit is less than a year old and just like new.  Will ship double boxed.   I ran a pair of Lawton D5000's with this and it was a great combination.   With 15wpc you don't really have to worry about having enough power.

 

Email if questions.   I'm sad to see this go, but I'm a 'stat' guy now so it's just sitting in the closet.  Split shipping and ship to the lower 48 only (ok, maybe Canada if you ask really nice). 

 

Almost forgot - Stephen at Quest for Sound (Pennsylvania) is one of the nicest guys in hi-fi.  Terrific product/customer support.

I had one. Best sound I ever got out of a dynamic setup. This amp has big time range.
