KR Audio 680i Awarded BEST in Solid State and Tube amps

FINAL Price Drop! Ready to move!
Only one unit - some lucky person will get a deal of lifetime. These tubes last 10,000 hours. We have less than 1000 hours on the tubes. That means that it has about 90% of life left with years of service. With money saved, you can buy a spare set of tubes at any time for insurance.
We are selling our KR Audio 680i DEMO unit that has been stored away since last NY Audio Show. This is way below our cost, there is only unit at this price, once it is gone, it is gone.  Yes, it is below the cost of manufacturing too. We are selling all our Super Hi-Fi gear to invest in affordable lines.   
We have only one DEMO  - best sounding Kronzilla! 
It is the same amp we used at NY Audio Show 2015 and got great feedback. https://www.chestergroup.org/newyorkaudioshow/2015

We are picking up another line  and someone will get  a lifetime deal for a Super Amp and a piece of art.
This unit has about 3000 Euros upgrades in it that are not in stock unit. This is the best possible combination one could get in a Kronzilla. We purchased Furutech RCA and XLR connectors and shipped them. This is the best sounding amp that KR makes and this unit has as many tweaks as we could possibly have. The unit has been crated and is ready to be shipped via Freight. 8/10 is conservatively rated. There are no cosmetic or operational issues with the unit.

Kronzilla VA680i Stereo Integrated Amplifier with upgrades:  
- ECO mode - run as solid state only amp with no tubes - Upgraded Furutech input and output connectors We had a customer who was making very nice comments about the sound from our system with VA680i. After some time, I switched to Tubes from Eco - solid state mode. He was blown away with depth, image density, musicality, nuance etc. He said solid state was great as a main amp - not just for background listening! With this unit, you are essentially getting two amps in one. A solid state amp and a tube amp. I keep the amp on solid state mode when I am doing work and switch to tube for critical listening or when evaluating another component in the system.  
- Upgraded custom paint (dull gold)   - Quieter operation: upgraded transformer and quiet fan  - Upgraded Furutech connectors Inputs: 1x XLR, 3x RCA - Pre-out 1x RCA (for subwoofer)   
Stereo tube amplifier. 60 + 60 Watts RMS

KR VA680i is perhaps the best example of what KR Audio does.  It is an amp that lets you really enjoy music. VA680i provides holographic image with realistic images and draws you into musical event.  There is plenty of power to drives most speakers with authority. Please call to discuss your system needs and get off the buy/sell Marry-go-round! We take trade-ins.

"Held der Arbeit" by Johannes Maier awarded BEST in Germany with 140 points over Macintosh, Krell, D'agostino, Octave, T+A etc. pgs. 144-147     
Johannes Maier of AUDIO wrote (Dec. 2013): "...the Kronzilla VA680 is crystal-clear and offers the finest resolution imaginable. It is magnificant and powerful with a well-formed bass. All these qualities combine to produce a live character that transports the listener right into the concert hall... the Kronzilla comes from another world, compared to the amps that rely on their reputation rather than their sound...the Kronzilla needs the cheering just about as much as a Stradivarius does..."    
The amp comes in a crate and will go through freight shipping. I will cheerfully refund if actual shipping is less. The amp is crated and ready to ship. Tubes ship in a separate box.

Thanks for your interest
