VAC Phi 200 Stereo Tube Amplifier

I am the second owner of this VAC Phi 200 stereo tube amp, buying it from the original owner in 2014. I have loved the sonic qualities and drive of this amp. In my house's electrical system I had experienced a mechanical buzzing sound from the AC power relay in the unit, so in early 2015 I had VAC upgrade this unit to a DC power relay (buzz now gone!) and had them add their Sentry circuit to monitor the power tube health. With that buzz addressed, this unit has performed flawlessly for me the entire time, and it sounds wonderful, offering VAC’s characteristic balancing act of greater resolution while maintaining harmonic fullness.

This amp is rated 8 out of 10 - - it is in excellent condition. I have the original shipping carton that packs the amp very securely, and also the original manual. The amp comes with four VAC KT88's output tubes and a pair of VAC 6SN7's + a matched pair of identical 6SN7's sourced from Upscale Audio . This set of tubes still has plenty of life in it. I will also ship the amp with a matched quad of Gold Lion Reissue KT88's (my favorite output tubes in my system, YMMV) - - these tubes have lots of life left on them.

Check my feedback and buy with confidence. Priced fair to sell. Buyer covers shipping fees, and I will only ship to continental US.

Thanks for looking, and happy listening!
