Cary Audio CAD 280-SA V12 pure Class A Tube Amplifier 
Amp is in very good overall cosmetic condition as pictured; there is a slight indent on one transformer cover as pictured   
Amp comes fully tubed, including 2 Amperex Bugle Boy EL84 tubes; 2 Russian 6922 tubes and 12 x Ruby EL34 tubes.  Not sure of the remaining tube life but all tubes bias correctly and the amp sounds wonderful.  
This amazing amp is switchable between Triode mode at 50 Watts per channel and Ultra Linear mode at 100 Watts per channel.  It's the "Big Brother" of Cary's famed  CAD-808 Rocket that uses 4xEL34.   
It was highly rated by Stereophile magazine; you can use Google to read the review.

• 50Watts Triode, 100 Watts Ultra-linear • INPUT SENSITIVITY: 2 volt for full output • NOISE AND HUM: -87 dB below rated output • FREQUENCY RESPONSE: 20 Hz to 23,000 Hz +/-1.0 dB @ FULL output • TUBES: 2x6922- Dual Triode, Phase Linear 2xEL-84 Current source (or 6BQ5) 12xEL34 output (or KT-88, 6550, KT-66, KT-90, 6L6, 6V6) • Fix bias • RESISTORS: 1.0 % metal film • CAPACITORS: Polystyrene and polypropylene (oil filled optional) • Speaker terminals are 4 or 8 ohms. • Wired to 110/120v input power supply and can be rewired to 220/240v   
This amp is extremely heavy and shipping weight will easily exceed 100 lbs; oversize charges may also apply.     
Local pick-up in Harrison, NY 10528 (30 minutes North of NYC) is strongly preferred
