This is a pair of vintage Decware SE84 amps from 2000 & 2003. They are set up as monoblocks. I would have used 2xSE84B's or C's but vintage SE84 amps are not commonly found on the market - few were made. These operate very well together.
As a pair they produce 6 watts and sound fantastic. One amp powers one channel so you have control to balance the 2 channels to your liking.
I estimate I've had these amps around 5 years. I personally upgraded them with the Hazen / CCE mod. In the pictures you'll see a small red capacitor. In the amp wiring you will see 2 of these capacitors in each amp soldered to the SV83 tube sockets. This is the mod. The amps are simple and ready to connect as monoblocks. Either directly to the amps or through a preamp.
Pictured are the tubes shipped with the amps.
The 2 "winged C" , Svetlana 5U4GB (Russian 5U3C) are vintage New Old Stock from 1973 and 77.
The 4 power tubes are Reflector/Saratov SV83. 3 were made in 1987 and 1 in 1988. Purchased as NOS.
The 2 driver tubes are 6992 Sylvania USA military grade (JAN). Purchased as NOS.
I've been on this forum since 2018 and have posted only a few times.
My first Decware amp was bought used here. It's a SE34 1.2. I still have it and use it in rotation. It's pictured on the bottom shelf of my audio rack along with a CSP2 preamp. These SE84's are on the second shelf.
I've also purchased 2 new amps from Decware. SEUFO2's wired as monos.
Long time (1999) eBay buyer/seller with 600+ reveiws @ 100% positive feedback.
Price is $1650 plus actual shipping cost. 1 box for each amp. Separate box for tubes at no cost shipping. Price includes Paypal / CC fees. I can accept credit cards.
Price discounted to $1600 for bank or personal check.
I will estimate shipping cost once I get boxes and weight. Lower US shipping only.
Thanks for your time, John
