Sounds best with Electro Harmonix tubes. I would like to see a white color chassis as an option and more choice of volume control knobs, I mean more modern looking knobs, but that's me... Guy 13 I prefer the 5AR4 tube for it's more modern look, but again, that's me...

White used to be the standard but now is not offered.

Posts: 44	Re: Updated Web Page for SE84CKC Reply #6 - 03/25/15 at 10:14:14 Hi all, how about if I buy/pay in full for a complete unit, you ship me just the chassis in Canada and I get it painted by a professional (White color), then return it back to Decware to get it populated. Does that make sense set aside the cost. Guy 13

I believe they went away from the white due to damage to coating during construction of the amp which led to too much scrap costs. It may be possible to do what you ask but, risk of damage to coating issue might kill your idea.

I own an SE84ZS which I purchased 2nd hand unfortunately :( the two inputs in the back which are supposed to be fixed or variable do not have a toggle switch as indicated in the manual. When I connect the fixed I need to turn the amp volume almost all the way up. When I use the variable there is loud static as soon as I turn the volume pot and it gets loud soooo quick and even all the way off sound bleeds into the speakers. Any suggestions ? Am I doing something wrong or does it need to be serviced . I own other Decware products and never had problems. I tried it with my CSP3 preamp but again volume on both needs to be way up to here any kind of volume. I am using Omega Super Alnico monitors which are supposed to sound wonderful but so far only grief Cry .....can this chassis be modified in any way to a current model ?
