A fantastic value and great sounding piece. This amp is a wonderful refined beast.

This is a just serviced Counterpoint amplifier, actually a perfected hybrid tube design. Don't miss this opportunity to own a highly rated piece of gear at a tremendous value and great opportunity for this collectors piece with high value to be enjoyed by Audiophiles and Music Lovers. Service included replacing a few parts, adding upgraded copper speaker binding posts, resoldering a few connections, and checking all capacitors. Unit is working to original specifications.

Full disclosure: Please see pics, one of the wood sides finish has a scratch but not really noticeable when looking at the amp straight on or when in a rack. Wood ends are removable and can easily be refinish if desired.

From an original owner, light use, non-smoking home. Tested after service: it sounds great!

Thomas Norton in Stereophile goes into all the specifics of this unique and powerful hybrid design: https://www.stereophile.com/content/counterpoint-natural-progression-nps-400-power-amplifier. At the end of the article, he rated it a solid class B, poking at A - this sample is not one of the first 50 amplifiers produced.
