Description
I am the original owner of this amp. I purchased it from Century Stereo in March of 2018. The amp originally came with KT120 tubes. I run them 1680 hours and then upgraded to a cryo matched quad of KT150 from Tube Depot plus a new set of 6H30Pi from Tube Depot as well. Currently the amp has 2281 hours so the new tubes have 601 hours one them.It is one of most 3D sounding amplifiers I have ever heard. Only reason for selling is I am downsizing in housing and no longer have them room for multiple systems.Includes original box, manual, 20amp power cord, everything that originally came from Audio Research. Subject to prior sale. Also listed on usaudiomart and audiogon at a price reflecting fees.

Shunyata Research Sidewinder VTX Power Cable Cord Audiophile 1.8M 15 Amp IEC Description Our SKU: 10054013 Item Brand: Shunyata Item MPN: 100% tested and works great. The Shunyata Sidewinder VTX incorporates Shunyatas exclusive (VTX) virtual-tube conductor technology. Previously available only in Shunyatas Reference Cobra, Python and Anaconda models, this unique conductor design allows the Sidewinder to outperform other power cords that are three times its price. -Shunyata Research The Sidewinder power cord is the most compelling example of what can be achieved when combining DTCD measurement analysis with twelve years of research and custom parts engineering. Every facet of the Sidewinder power cord has been optimized and measured for ideal peak-current delivery and isolation from high-frequency noise. Despite its reasonable cost, the Sidewinder uses the same complex wire-geometry that goes into Shunyata Researchs more expensive power cord models. The Sidewinder also benefits from a new conductor that was originally developed for Shunyatas PowerSnakes Signal Cables. The VTX conductor is formed from many small wires that are joined to form a hollow core, or tube-like conductor. This one-of-a-kind conductor represents an ideal because of reduced internal distortion and skin-effect. Creating a product that could significantly out-perform Shunyatas multiple-award winning Venom3 power cord required an enormous investment of research, measurement and accumulated knowledge of the key performance elements in peak-current power transfer. The Sidewinder power cord is the embodiment of Shunyatas success and advances in these areas. VTX (Virtual Tube Geometry) Shunyata Research has developed what might be the worlds perfect signal cable geometry. VTX wire geometry simulates a hollow conductor, which minimizes inherent inductive reactance and skin effect. ALPHA CRYO Process Shunyata Research cryogenically treats all wire and electrical contacts used in the production of its signal cables. A state-of-the-art computer controlled chamber is used to lower the temperature of the contents to -320 degrees Fahrenheit. The exclusive, Shunyata Research developed, Alpha Cryogenic Process uses a proprietary combination of gases to enhance the cryogenic treatment. CDA-101 Copper CDA-101 copper is the highest purity copper available in the world. It comes with signed certifications that verify its authenticity and purity. This is the only type of copper that Shunyata Research uses in its electrical products, from signal cables to power cords and power conditioners.

Description
Here’s a nice Audio Research Foundation Series VT80 amp, originally in silver, now in black. I also have what I believe are some original silver trim pieces. If you want those, I will see if i can safely pack them in the original carton with the amp or you can just pay me the extra shipping cost to send a second and smaller box your way. When I got this unit I got in touch with ARC and I ordered the optional tube cage for it along with a new “Certified Matched” factory tube set featuring the SE-spec KT150 tubes. In the two years since, I’ve put just 57.9 Hours on that factory tube set. As you may know, the early units were sold as VT80 with KT120 tubes (as this one probably was). Soon after launch, they went to the larger KT150 tubes and with that change alone, these units became VT80SE tube amps. There was no other difference between VT80 or VT80SE. The SE came by virtue of a simple tube change alone. Here’s how the manufacturer explains it, better than I can: https://audioresearch.com/product/vt80se/______________________________________The big change from the VT80 to the new VT80SE is upgrading the KT120 tubes to the higher performance KT150 output tubes. Everyone should know that we have been deeply enamored with the KT150 as we feature it in all of our other amplifiers, from the VSi75 to the REF 750SE. Its performance is unparalleled and its 3,000 hour average life allows years of uninterrupted listening. The VT80 was originally designed with the KT120, the predecessor to the KT150, but these two tubes are electrically interchangeable and the demand for delivering the VT80 with the KT150 could be ignored no longer.It is important to mention that the KT150 tubes supplied by Audio Research, for all of our products, are tested and measured for quality control and assurance, and are burned in for 48 hours. Then using our “Certified Matched” process, they are hand matched in sets with tolerances 10x tighter than standard off-the-shelf tubes, thus ensuring the finest audio quality possible.With its auto-bias design, the VT80SE can also be used with KT120 or KT150 output tubes and the circuit will adjust immediately when a new tube is installed. Protective fuses are installed for each output tube and can be replaced if the need ever arises. What sonic improvements will you hear with the VT80SE? As our Warren Gehl said, “More music!” Tonal color, detail, dynamic swing and purity are all improved, along with a bigger and more robust presentation. The music gets better, in every way.Aside from the beautiful curves of the KT150 tubes, the only other way to distinguish the SE from the original VT80 is by a small sticker on the rear panel. Nothing else needed to change. The existing (optional) ventilated tube cover can be used with the taller KT150 tube set, there is still sufficient space to breathe. Hear for yourself how good your system can sound with the new VT80SE, it will make a tube-lover out of anyone who loves music.___________________________________________________Link to the manual: https://audioresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/VT80SE-Manual.pdf The sound is phenomenal, as I’m sure you already know about these units. They engineered a first-ever auto-bias system for the tubes in these amps so you can put that little plastic screw driver away from prior AR amps! Used with care in my no-smoking home. You’ll get the manual and original power cord all in the original double-boxed factory carton.Reviewed 6 years by TAS: https://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/audio-research-vt80se-power-amplifier/Serial #49745 for this unit and the box label is included in my photos.

Description
Zum Verkauf bieten wir hier eine überragende Röhren-Endstufe aus der amerikanischen Edel-Schmiede Audio Research. Es handelt sich um das Modell VT-100MKIII, welche mit einer Leistung von 2 x 100W angegeben ist. Via Boxenterminals kann die Impedanz auf 4 oder 8 Ohm eingestellt werden. Als Eingang stehen sowohl Cinch- als auch XLR-Buchsen zur Verfügung. Im Gegensatz zu den meisten unserer angebotenen Geräte, wird diese Endstufe im Kundenauftrag, also als Privatverkauf unter Ausschluss der Gewährleistung verkauft! Die Endstufe stammt aus 1. Hand und wir diese auch angeschlossen und sie ist natürlich funktionsfähig. Das Gerät stand jahrelang verpackt im Schrank und hat daher nur wenig Betriebsstunden und ist daher auch in einem entsprechend gutem, beinahe neuwertigem, Zustand. Die Endstufe kann selbstverständlich bei der Abholung (nur Abholung möglich!) ausgiebig begutachtet und getestet werden. Angebotsumfang: Die Endstufe, Manual und OVP Fragen beantworten wir gern. Wir nehmen übrigens auch Geräte in Zahlung. Auf Anfrage machen wir Ihnen gerne ein entsprechendes Angebot. Bitte schauen Sie auch einmal in unseren Ebay-Shop Hifi-Dortmund. Dort finden Sie in der Regel zahlreiche interessante Angebote aus den Bereichen Hifi und High End Hifi. Bitte haben Sie Verständnis, dass wir diesen Artikel keinesfalls versenden werden. Das Gerät eignet sich aufgrund der Beschaffenheit und/oder des Gewichts nicht zum Versand. Das heißt, er muß in unserem Geschäft in Dortmund abgeholt werden. Bitte bedenken Sie das auch bei etwaigen Rückgaben. Wenn Sie das nicht können oder wollen, bitten wir Sie, vom Kauf abstand zu nehmen. Daher eher etwas für Interessenten aus der Region. Vorbesichtigung und Probehören gerne vorab möglich. KEIN VERSAND! NO SHIPPING! Grundsätzlicher Hinweis zu unseren Angeboten! Wir sind niemals Erstbesitzer und können daher praktisch kaum eine lückenlose Historie garantieren. Auch können wir nicht garantieren, ob sich die Geräte noch im Originalzustand befinden. Wir sind da auch meistens auf die Angaben der Vorbesitzer angewiesen, die wir dann unsererseits, wenn keine Anhaltspunkte zum Zweifel erkennbar sind, unverändert weitergeben. Die Zustandsbeschreibung ist stets eine subjektive, die unsere Einschätzung wiedergibt. Das es zu unterschiedlichen Einschätzungen kommen kann ist natürlich möglich. Fast immer handelt es sich um Gebrauchtgeräte und nicht um unberührte Neuware. Bitte haben Sie Verständnis, dass wir nachträglich nicht in Preisverhandlungen eintreten werden, weil dem Käufer der Artikel nicht zusagt. Wenn das Gerät nicht den Erwartungen entsprechen sollte, kann der Käufer das Gerät im Rahmen des Rückgaberechts wieder retournieren. Auch bitten wir zu beachten, dass bei älteren Geräten die 10, 20 oder mehr Jahre alt sind stets altersbedingt Bauteile ausfallen können. Zudem können wir nie garantieren, dass die Geräte wie am ersten Tag spielen. Auch hier kann es die ein oder andere Alterserscheinung von Bauteilen geben. Weiter können bereits Bauteile in der Vergangenheit gewechselt worden sein. Wenn nicht ausdrücklich anders erwähnt, werden alle unsere Verkäufe gem §25a UStG vorgenommen, so dass keine MwSt ausgewiesen werden kann. Unsere Öffnungszeiten: Mo-Fr: 14:30 - 18:30 Uhr und Sa: 10:00 - 14:00 Uhr

Description
Here’s a nice Audio Research Foundation Series VT80 amp, originally in silver, now in black. I also have what I believe are some original silver trim pieces. If you want those, I will see if i can safely pack them in the original carton with the amp or you can just pay me the extra shipping cost to send a second and smaller box your way. When I got this unit I got in touch with ARC and I ordered the optional tube cage for it along with a new “Certified Matched” tube set featuring the SE-spec KT150 tubes. In the two years since, I’ve put just 57.9 Hours on that factory tube set. As you may know, the early units were sold as VT80 with KT120 tubes (as this one probably was). Soon after launch, they went to the larger KT150 tubes and with that change alone, these units became VT80SE tube amps. There was no other difference between VT80 or VT80SE. The SE came by virtue of a simple tube change alone. Here’s how the manufacturer explains it, better than I can: https://audioresearch.com/product/vt80se/______________________________________The big change from the VT80 to the new VT80SE is upgrading the KT120 tubes to the higher performance KT150 output tubes. Everyone should know that we have been deeply enamored with the KT150 as we feature it in all of our other amplifiers, from the VSi75 to the REF 750SE. Its performance is unparalleled and its 3,000 hour average life allows years of uninterrupted listening. The VT80 was originally designed with the KT120, the predecessor to the KT150, but these two tubes are electrically interchangeable and the demand for delivering the VT80 with the KT150 could be ignored no longer.It is important to mention that the KT150 tubes supplied by Audio Research, for all of our products, are tested and measured for quality control and assurance, and are burned in for 48 hours. Then using our “Certified Matched” process, they are hand matched in sets with tolerances 10x tighter than standard off-the-shelf tubes, thus ensuring the finest audio quality possible.With its auto-bias design, the VT80SE can also be used with KT120 or KT150 output tubes and the circuit will adjust immediately when a new tube is installed. Protective fuses are installed for each output tube and can be replaced if the need ever arises. What sonic improvements will you hear with the VT80SE? As our Warren Gehl said, “More music!” Tonal color, detail, dynamic swing and purity are all improved, along with a bigger and more robust presentation. The music gets better, in every way.Aside from the beautiful curves of the KT150 tubes, the only other way to distinguish the SE from the original VT80 is by a small sticker on the rear panel. Nothing else needed to change. The existing (optional) ventilated tube cover can be used with the taller KT150 tube set, there is still sufficient space to breathe. Hear for yourself how good your system can sound with the new VT80SE, it will make a tube-lover out of anyone who loves music.___________________________________________________Link to the manual: https://audioresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/VT80SE-Manual.pdf The sound is phenomenal, as I’m sure you already know about these units. They engineered a first-ever auto-bias system for the tubes in these amps so you can put that little plastic screw driver away from prior AR amps! Used with care in my no-smoking home. You’ll get the manual and original power cord all in the original double-boxed factory carton. See a separate listing for my PS Audio DirectStream Mk I DAC with the streaming Bridge II module.Reviewed 6 years by TAS: https://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/audio-research-vt80se-power-amplifier/Serial #49745 for this unit and the box label is included in my photos.

Description
Shunyata Research Sidewinder VTX Power Cable, lightly used and appears in nearly new condition. No box or paperwork. One owner lightly used minor wear on connectors very good condition 100% tested and works great. The Shunyata Sidewinder VTX incorporates Shunyatas exclusive (VTX) virtual-tube conductor technology. Previously available only in Shunyatas Reference Cobra, Python and Anaconda models, this unique conductor design allows the Sidewinder to outperform other power cords that are three times its price. -Shunyata Research The Sidewinder power cord is the most compelling example of what can be achieved when combining DTCD measurement analysis with twelve years of research and custom parts engineering. Every facet of the Sidewinder power cord has been optimized and measured for ideal peak-current delivery and isolation from high-frequency noise. Despite its reasonable cost, the Sidewinder uses the same complex wire-geometry that goes into Shunyata Researchs more expensive power cord models. The Sidewinder also benefits from a new conductor that was originally developed for Shunyatas PowerSnakes Signal Cables. The VTX conductor is formed from many small wires that are joined to form a hollow core, or tube-like conductor. This one-of-a-kind conductor represents an ideal because of reduced internal distortion and skin-effect. Creating a product that could significantly out-perform Shunyatas multiple-award winning Venom3 power cord required an enormous investment of research, measurement and accumulated knowledge of the key performance elements in peak-current power transfer. The Sidewinder power cord is the embodiment of Shunyatas success and advances in these areas. VTX (Virtual Tube Geometry) Shunyata Research has developed what might be the worlds perfect signal cable geometry. VTX wire geometry simulates a hollow conductor, which minimizes inherent inductive reactance and skin effect. ALPHA CRYO Process Shunyata Research cryogenically treats all wire and electrical contacts used in the production of its signal cables. A state-of-the-art computer controlled chamber is used to lower the temperature of the contents to -320 degrees Fahrenheit. The exclusive, Shunyata Research developed, Alpha Cryogenic Process uses a proprietary combination of gases to enhance the cryogenic treatment. CDA-101 Copper CDA-101 copper is the highest purity copper available in the world. It comes with signed certifications that verify its authenticity and purity. This is the only type of copper that Shunyata Research uses in its electrical products, from signal cables to power cords and power conditioners.
