Odyssey Audio Kismet Monoblock Amplifiers in perfect working condition.
My original plan was to upgrade these to the Kismet casing, but change of events necessitates their sale. Still looks amazing in their blue-anodized faceplate and cover (which is an extra charge) -- you have to see these in person to appreciate their appearance. More importantly, you truly need to hear these amps -- all those hidden details (the pick striking the guitar strings, the true-to-life rattle of the snare drum) are fully revealed! Alon Wolf of Magico has recommended Odysseys and editor Jonathan Valin has Odyssey Stratos (which is a step below the Kismets) as part of his reference amplifiers.
Please refer to the picture of the internals to show their Kismet build: black Kismet circuit boards, ultra-fast and ultra-expensive Symphonic Reference capacitors (including extra outboard caps), Groneberg wiring, upgraded power supply.
Also has upgraded gold-plated WBT binding posts which are NOT broken. As a BONUS, you get a pair of NEW silver-aluminum faceplates still in their shrink-wrap.
All sales are FINAL (I have a video of these fully working prior to packing). Flat-rate shipping to lower 48 only. PAYPAL fee INCLUDED. Wow, what more can you ask for? Best deal for reference-grade Kismets currently on Audiogon.
Please PM for further questions. Thank you for looking and I trust that you'll truly enjoy these as much as I have.
Questions for the seller |
|---|
| Can we get a picture of the back? You can fuzz the serial number if you want, of course.
Do these have the 180,000 microfarad capacitor banks?
I'm very interested in Odyssey amps, but have been confused about why we see so many Kismets in Khartago cases. Hi there. Thank you for your interest.
I will upload a pic of the back when I return from work later. Not much to see there other than the WBT binding posts which are perfectly fine.
These have 120,000 microfarads of capacitance (all Symphonic Reference Line caps) and upgraded 400 VA transformer.
The great thing about Klaus Bunge of Odyssey is that he lets you choose/customize your amp. The Kismet case is an additional expense that some feel they do not need. These are the Khartago Deluxe cases with the blue LED Odyssey lighting on the faceplate (not the plain silkscreened Khartago faceplate).
Honestly, these are a great bargain at $1600 (especially compared to the one listed for $2800 which is practically identical; and this has NO broken parts or mal-aligned case like the other likely-mishandled one listed). Where else can you find Monoblock amps that perform as good as these for the same price?
I already have another interested party at this time, so I would urge you or anybody else interested to make a reasonable offer or buy-it-now before somebody else snatches it.
Good luck and thanks again for the interest. |
