Canary Audio C1300. Canary Audio is known for their preamps. This preamp was acquired in a trade for a power amp. I planned on using this amp with a power amp I bought from TMR. I returned the power amp in favor of an Integrated amp which was a perfect match for my extremely high efficient speakers. So now this wonderful preamp becomes redundant in my system. About this preamp. It is a 2021 model. The original owner cut a hole out above the rectifier tube so that larger rectifiers can be rolled. I replaced all the tubes (with JJ tubes identical to the original OEM tubes) and they have basically zero hours on them. This preamp also comes with the Remote which is a $750 upgrade (why the hell does it cost that much LOL?) The preamp itself retails at $7900. If you have a high end headphone system or 2 channel speaker system, you owe it to yourself to hear it with a truly high end preamp. From my experiences, a preamp will make a more positive impact than a higher end dac. I had a Rockna Wavelight which has a very good preamp, but the Canary was a big improvement over the built in Preamp of the Rockna. WIth my Hifi Rose RS150B, I thought the Dac was subpar….but when the preamp was bypassed to the Canary, I realized the preamp was the limiting factor! you can read about this preamp here https://www.canaryaudio.com/C1300.html

Tube amplifiers have always sounded magical but when you add 300B tubes into the mix, it becomes heavenly. And this is what the CA-309 is all about. 300B Push-Pull Parallel Mono Block. The monoblock amps with their 300B tubes put out 45W of Class A sweetness. If you are in the market for tube amps and have a budget of around $5,000, these are one of the most musical sounding amps you can buy in this price range. Their 45W may force you to get a fairly efficient speakers but it is all worth it. Canary upgraded transformers to 50 watt. Mid-range is smooth and relaxed with a rich warm sound. Upper mid-bass had a nice weight to it with the lower end bass rounding it off nicely. It may not have the tight slam of solid state amps but it was good enough to satisfy most listeners. Tube complements are: 4-300B,2-6SN7GTB,2-5U4GB Comes with original box. Prefered payments by Paypal, and/or local pickups. Buyer is responsible for shipping costs + 3% paypal fees + 2% transaction fee. Model: CA-309 Rated Power Output: 45 Watts RMS Input Sensitivity: 0.72 Volts for full output Input Impedance: 150,000 Ohms Frequency Response: +/- 1 dB from 8 Hz to 80,000 Hz Total Harmonic Distortion: < 0.3% Signal-to-Noise ratio: -86 dB below 1 Watt Damping Factor: 14 Power Consumption: 340 Watts (true RMS) Output Impedance: 4, 8 Ohm Tube Complement (per channel): 4-300B, 2-6SN7GTB, 2-5U4GB Dimensions (per channel): 12” W x 24.5” D x 9” H Weight (per channel): 70 lbs. I have owned these amps for 9 years, but am downsizing my stereo footprint, so these must go. 4 years ago had canary upgrade transformers to 50 wpc from the original 45. These amps are beautiful sounding with fairly efficient speakers. I have a complete set of extra tube compliment that I rolled out that would be included with the amps. 8 electro-harmonix 300bs 2 cv181z shuguang 8 total Phillips 5u4gb Tubes I’m using now are 8 shuguang 300bz with 1500 hrs on them 2 6sn7 gtb 4 Phillips ecg 5u4gb Anyway all tubes are included. The shuguang tubes were a huge improvement. Bulletproof amps at a great price and never driven hard. I don’t have original boxes and they are 90 lbs a piece, but will carefully package them Tubes will be shipped separate. Package dimensions31.0 × 16.0 × 19.0 (70.0 lbs.)31.0 × 16.0 × 18.0 (70.0 lbs.) These 300bs need biased after install. It’s very simple-basically adjusting voltage to .55 volts for each 300b with a small screwdriverThis is important for optimal sound..
