FS: Blue Torri $800
01/22/21 at 14:20:02

Submitted for you consideration, an original, one of a kind, Blue Torri.

I've put this on the selling block a few times before but backed out of any sale because I had thoughts and ideas of how to use it in the future, but the future never comes and the amp sits in a box, in the closet, angry, that I don't use it. Currently, it is tubeless, but I can find a set of tubes somewhere, if you don't have tubes of your own.

So, sad as it may be, I'm putting it up for sale.

The asking price is $800. I'll handle the Paypal fee, and I'll go half on S&H. Main USA only.

I can ship it to your home or send it back home to DECWARE to get tested and vetted.

Such a deal, right?

I can't find the revision history for this particular amp. Just to make sure I'm seeing things correctly, this has a single input? And is it wired for two sets of speakers, or one set of bi-wired speakers? How many watts did this version put out? Assuming those are not UFO transformers? What year was this made?
Great looking amp! But looks like it's missing a few features I'm looking for.
Cheers!

Matchstikman Seasoned Member Posts: 759	Re: FS: Blue Torri $800 Reply #10 - 02/08/21 at 15:58:45 So far, lots of inquiries but no takers. I thought about pulling this sale back, sending this to Decware and having Steve add a pre-amp section to this, which Steve said he could do, but I just do not have a place for this amp at this time. So, lowering the price down to $700. Any takers?

I'm pondering sending it home and having a pre-amp section added to it. I used to use a CSP in front of it which I no longer own so firing it up hasn't been possible in the last few years.

I've no room for one. . . though I've been tempted by this sale. A preamp section would really do it up nicely. A ZBOX might work as well though it's not as linear as a preamp I used to use mine as one with a pair of Steve's EL34 Monoblocks for years. . . good sound together!

Not that I needed another amp but I saw this ad right after it was posted and thought I'd like to try it. I asked for a photo or two and received them Saturday morning on January 23rd. I replied back that afternoon and said I'd take it and I asked if a down payment was needed till I went to the bank on Monday the 25th to pay for it then and if that was fine but to let me know and never received any replies. I followed up on Sunday the 24th also with no reply so I assumed it was sold.
