Title: Willsenton R8 - Upgraded Tubes
Post by Zoso69 on 03/07/23 at 00:38:25

Hey Folks,

In anticipation of new gear arriving next week, I'm putting my Willsenton R8 up for sale.

I upgraded the entire tube set, including recently added Wathen Audiophile (Cryogenic) EL34's, highly recommended by Steve. I can attest to their sound quality, they're fantastic.

I'm only asking $1,500, which is the new price but with over $700 worth of upgraded tubes I think it's a steal.
If you know anything about this amp then you know what I'm talking about.

Feel free to reach out for photos - or check them out here - https://www.ebay.com/itm/234923129577

If you are getting an EL34 amp, I would keep the tubes and sell your Willenston stock.

Thanks Erich,
I don't plan on getting another tube amp anytime soon.

If anyone is interested, feel free to make an offer.

I'd be interested in just the tubes.

Thanks Norm,
If a buyer wishes to buy the unit stock (no tubes) I'll reach out to you.
What would you be willing to offer for them?

I decided to purchase 4 EL-34's direct. That is all I need for now.
