FS: Vacuum tube hifi amplifier

As some of you have seen, I have built my own amplifier, and now have no room for my old one. This is a Mark Hill MC-10L, which I bought new a little more than a year ago. The stock power tubes have been upgraded to a matched quartet of Svetlana Winged C EL34s (best new production EL34 out today), and the preamp/driver tubes have been upgraded to Voskhod 6N1P-EV. You will not find this level of sound quality in anything thats priced similarly, or even 2 or 3 times its cost in most cases. It gives the life and emotion to music and movies that solid state amps just cant do. Heres the stock specs:

· Shuguang EL34B × 4 (Output Tubes)
. Shuguang 6N1 × 4 (Voltage amplifiers and drivers)
· Maximum Output: 52W per channel (8Ω)
· Output Jacks: Two channels with two groups gold plated jacks
· Output Impedance: 4Ω and 8Ω
· Input Sensitivity: 0.3V
· Input Impedance: 20KΩ
· Input Jacks: 4 Groups gold plated Isolated RCA jacks (CD, DVD, Tape, and Tuner)
· Distortion of Harmonic Wave: ≤1% (at 40W)
· Frequency Response: 20Hz ~ 60KHz (+/-1dB 10W)
· Signal-to-Noise Ratio: 85dB (A weight)
· Supply Voltage: AC 115V, 60Hz
· Power Consumption: 220W
· Net Weight: 40lb.

Im taking a loss by selling this, but I dont have the room anymore and it needs to go. I have $200 just in the upgraded tubes alone. Sacrificing at $400 firm. I know I can get more for it easy, but Im just looking to make a quick sale and have the room. Vacuum Tube Valley currently sells this amp for $995.

You need to get that stuff back and get him a tabletop radio. Carver is some great stuff.
