For your consideration is a high watermark of boutique SET amplification, and the first time ever offered on Audiogon in US 120V (and perhaps the last?). My search for the ultimate in 2a3 single ended sound ended here a few years ago. I've never encountered another amp with this level of breathtakingly open, lucid midrange, and extended, yet sweet highs.
This is the best non-paralleled 2a3 amp that Audio Note UK makes. It is a level 3 product, which means:
Pure Class A operation
Zero Negative Feedback
Single Ended Output Stage
Valve Rectification
Directly Heated Triode operation
The Silver Signature version builds upon the already superb performance of the standard Vindicator, and features the following additions:
Audio Note (UK) Copper Foil signal capacitors
Cerafine capacitors in critical areas
Audio Note (UK) 2 Watt Tantalum film resistors
Audio Note (UK) SHiB Double C-core output transformers
Silver RCAs
Silver Speaker binding posts
The nearest Audio Note level 4 product is $10,000, and is a paralleled 2A3, which in practical terms rules out the use of a matched Quad of NOS tubes based on their scarcity. NOS 2A3s are highly recommended, and will bring out the very best in this amp.
It is in pristine condition as far as I can tell, with no visible (to my eyes at least) marks anywhere on it.
My transition towards consolidation lead me to get an Integrated (one that I can live with) and hence the sale of this wonderful amp and my preamp (in another listing).
