Trade-ins considered. No REASONABLE offer refused. Blue Circle's classic premier products - single-ended tube pre-amps and Class A, single-ended, hybrid amplifiers - achieved a unique reputation for their uncanny ability to 'the put the music into the room.' Rising above comparisons of warmth, coolness, resolution, soundstage, and the like, they proposed something that supercedes all of these parameters. A 12V trigger is built-in for home theater systems. This amp was among the first of Blue Circle's "future-proof" designs. In keeping with this idea the following UPGRADE OPTIONS are available: - M2 output modules used in the current NSP and BC1022 models - KQ upgrades. The KQ was originally designed as outboard power supply upgrade for 200 series power amps. 75% of the KQ can be installed inside the existing AG8000 chassis - Interstage coupling capacitors can be upgraded, to film and foil caps. - Internal signal and output wiring upgrade If you're reading this ad, you already know the stellar sound quality these Blue Circle amps provide that few others can equal at ANY price.

Questions for the seller
Hi, i am upgrading from solid state to tubes. This is a good opportunity to start, do you know how old is this unit? I just bought a pair of Komri floor standing speakers made by Linn with 87db efficiency. These mono blocks able to drive it smoothly? Thanks Ben
Hi....send me a link to the speakers you purchased and I will forward to Gilbert from BC....he'll confirm the amps will be a good match or not. Thanks, Walt
