Whose sorry now? Sellers remorse from selling amp.


Have you ever experienced a great sense of depression selling an amplifier only to later realize that
it would be nearly impossible to achieve the same high level of sound with easy to find new units? Have you ever experienced a reduced EGO and sense of self worth after having passed up buying a high quality used amplifier? Please tell us what the makes and models of these amps are.

Boa2: Did you ever try the 300B amps? I currently have a pair of Wright 3.5 amps, and have considered trying a 300B amp (for the additional wattage). Any thoughts or suggestions?

I regret selling my FM acoustics phono stage. It had a great feature that you could alter the RIIA curve to suit older recordings. At the time I was blaming it for my system sounding a little bright. guess what it was just telling me about my speakers.
rec- a nobis(made in wisconsin) cantible is on the gon. i had the cantible and the proteus pre and i swear they were the best tubed pair since the marantz 7 and 8b. there are 4 cases of remorse right there.
Absolutely, and beyond a shadow of a doubt, the worst mistake that I ever made was selling my Mark Levinson 33H monoblocks.
I have been unable to obtain anything close to the system that I had.
And now the prices have gone out the roof, and it will probably be years before I will ever be able to buy another pair for what I paid for those.
Such is life!
I must also confess to selling my McIntosh Mi-200 (industrial tube amp circa 1950), and my Western electric 594A 2"field coil driver (Circa 1930). I have never fully recovered from this mistake. The Mi-200 had the greatest bass I have ever heard. I cannot now find any amp,at any price that sounds anywhere near that fantastic. The WE driver had the most astounding and clear mid-range in existence. I sold this mono set to get into stereo 30 years ago, I mourn their loss on a daily basis and cannot find a suitable replacement. I feel heart broken,remorseful and depressed that these cannot be replaced, their prices are now astronomical.
