Sold: EU (Germany) - SW51+, 220v, no cat + 2 sets of tubes

hello.

well, I decided to finally let this one go. it's been sitting mostly idle of late, or acting as a pre-amp for Musical Paradise MP-301. I have listened extensively to SW51+ lately to make up my mind, and while it's cleaner and more refined than Musical Paradise MP-301, the MP-301 with upgraded tubes comes very close, and to my (perhaps coarse) ears has a more pronounced tube character.

my SW51+ is a 220v version without the cat on the fron plate. I am the first owner, took delivery in Jan this year, the SW51+ is without issues optically or technically. will come with original tubes (probably about 50 hours) as well as Mazda 6F23 and Telefunken EF 805 S, two popular choices, each with own distinct character. last two sets of tubes have probably around 100-150 hours each on them.

will come in the original box, as well as extra box for added protection. no power cord, only amp and the tubes - you'll have to procure your own power cord. I will throw in as a freeby a 25 EUR Canare TSR to 2 x RCA cable which is handy if you would like to run SW51+ as pre-amp.

please note that I am a smoker and have cats.

asking EUR 350 for the set, will cover the PayPal fee, buyer pays the shipping. will only ship to EU countries.

note that I have a J2 on sale which pairs well with SW51+: https://www.superbestaudiofriends.o...germany-geshelli-j2-dac-purple-ess-usb.12787/ I could probably knock EUR 50 off the whole set, and you get to save another bit on combined shipping.

any questions - let me know. I sure hope I won't have to put this one up on Head-Fi. since a bit of interest can be reasonably anticipated, I suggest you stake your claim in the comments first and then PM me, so that everything is transparent. I have now have one successful sale to a member here, so could probably ask for endorsement if required.
