    A couple of items in my possession for sale:

    1) A black Vidar, in excellent functional and cosmetic condition. I've been trying to get a response from Schiit to have a box shipped out to me for this, but no luck yet on a response. I'll have to receive the box first to ship this, but posting it for now at $550 shipped.
    SSSOOOLLLDDD

    2) ON HOLD...

    What's lovingly called the Giorgio Moroder amp. Watch the video on it below by Tyll to find out why.

    I bought this for $800 in 2012. Sold it to a guy and then contacted him last year to see if I could buy it back. I wanted to learn about tube circuits and tinker, but never got much further than putting a Goldpoint in. Goldpoint is now out and I bought an Alps RK27 to get in there. Anyhow, looking to sell to fellow tinkerers/curious people on the cheap - say $100. Local sale preferred. If you're competent with an iron, I'll just provide the Alps, and if you're not comfortable, I'll get the pot installed first. It's heavy so shipping is secondary to any locals that are interested.

    I assume this DIY amp is set at 120V and cannot be voltage reconfigured?

    I mean, if you can get the right kind of power transformer you can make it run off other voltages, but no it's not "110-220V" so to speak.

    Hahaha, I'll knock $50 off for everyone if someone can do this (preferably fade in the actual Daft Punk instrumental).
