For your consideration, is a pair of DIY GainClone monoblock amplifiers. I have used Audio Sector's PCB, the finest on the market, and the best possible parts.. to the max = money no object. They are based on LM3875 56W / Channel chips with an ultra short signal path.
- BlackGate amplifier section capacitors
- Mondorf power supply capacitors
- Caddock precision metal film resistors
- Over-sized Hammond tororidal transformers (250W/ch)
- Furutech power sockets
- Silver switches
- Aviation grade silver Teflon wiring
- WBT silver solder used througout
- Cardas silver binding posts and RCA sockets
- Pure copper isolation for transformer, power supply, and amplifier section
I bought these aluminum cases on eBay, and they came with the Cello logo printed, so my inner nerd had to get a matching rear plates using the same name. These are DIY, and not Cello amps... Cello has been out of business for many years, but they do look cool this way. :-)
The amps were built as mirror images, and although the photos are of the inside, they do come with the case original cover, and 3 heavy duty conical isolation footers.
They are broken in, but otherwise new.
NOTE: To keep the audio signal as short as possible, these amps have no coupling caps, so make sure your pre-amp has no DC output! High quality preamps should not have any DC output, but if you want, I can add any coupling capacitors of your choice.
I am asking for the price of the parts only, approximately $1,100 for both. Many hours of work went into making these fine pieces of audio bliss, but I had fun building them and now it is time for someone else to enjoy listening to them.
