Festooned Posted May 14, 2017 Posted May 14, 2017 Item: Bewitch 6550/KT88 Tube AmplifierLocation: AdelaidePrice: $850Item Condition: Excellent cosmetics and functionReason for selling: Too many amplifiersPayment Method: Pickup - Cash, COD OnlyExtra Info: This amplifier has upgraded Brimar input tubes and has seen little use in a back-up system. Pick up in Adelaide only please. This one has some very nice romance to the sound available via triode mode (it is switchable triode/ultralinear) and enough power to drive conventional speaker designs as opposed to only high efficiency models. It might be a nice solution for someone for whom smaller single ended models just don't have the juice and it images like a champ. It seems nicely made compared to some I've had before too. Controls are smooth and quiet. No sonic dramas (odd pops and other weird sounds) in operation as I've sometimes heard and no discernible hum on any of my speakers. Great amp. 8) Specs: Output Power : ULTRA LINEAR 60W x 2 / TRIODE 30W x 2Output Tube : 6550 x 4 Russian tubesFrequency : 13Hz-60KHz(-1dB)Signal/Noise Ratio : 89dBInput/Driver Tube : 5Z4P x 2, 6N8P x 2, 6N9P x 2Input Sensitivity : 500mvInput Impedance : 100k ohmOutput Impedance : 8 ohm & 4 ohmHarmonic Distortion : 0.1%Source Input : Tape, CD and AuxSize Dimension : W 350mm x H 165mm x L 436mmColour : BlackWeight : 28kg Pictures: 1
Steever Posted May 15, 2017 Posted May 15, 2017 Lovely amplifier. Good with factory tubes and responds well to tube rolling. 1
Prana69 Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 I own one of these. Sounds great in stock form but with some upgrades done by Earle Weston it now sounds sensational. GLWTS! D 1
Festooned Posted May 16, 2017 Author Posted May 16, 2017 (edited) Gah, don't say that. It's hard enough to see go as it is! 8) I have great respect for Earle's work. Edited May 22, 2017 by treuben 1
