Moved things around a little bit. On the left Salire: my new Verite Open stabilized set "Nechtan." On the right Salire: almond wood Auteurs in the back, Rognir Dynamic Baltic Sea in the front. On the little glass table I repurposed this morning is my Crack with Speedball, running a Tung-Sol 5998 and a Sylvania VT-99 (in a 6F8G->6SN7 adapter in a 6SN7->12AU7 adapter).
On the desktop is my Schiit stack - Magnius, Lokius and Bifrost 2. Next to that is my cap-modded Liquid Platinum with a pair of Mullard CV4003s. And one random brown-base CBS/Hytron 5692 tube just chilling out.
EDIT: Didn't even mention the Verite Closed stabilized "Behir"
Wish I did. The other thing is he also bought an AM/ FM KT-8007 SS Stereo Tuner at the same time. I still have the manuals and warranties for both. I also have the KT-8007 but it needs to be serviced. It’s in great shape aesthetically but not working.
That may be / is true now. But if after servicing, the amp+tuner were in better than working condition and kept that way, would not their value (rarity) increase over time? You might be able to ‘breakeven’ and then some in monetary terms.

That's a very logical question. But events go against it. I priced these 2 items out on the open market ~12 years ago. They're worth just 50%-60% now, what they had been then.
