Golden Tube amps


These look interesting to me and have some good prices. Anyone have some opinions on these? Reliability? Sound quality such as sound staging, detail and of course realism. I have never owned tube, so don't know the problems that come with tubes in general.

I thought they had a decent sound for the money. Compared well to my Mccormack dna 0.5. Better than anything new you could buy SS. My problem was reliability. Had it serviced twice. I still have it, would be interested in some of the mods. My old spectral 50 blows it away, though.
Foeraus, thanks for that link. It works fine, and I'll see if someone there has an answer.

I have an old SE-40 (parallel single-ended 40 wpc stereo) which sounded glorious, especially for the coin...but the circuit was unreliable and I threw in the towel after having it repaired twice.

It's still in my garage in Boca Raton, FL, free to anyone who wants to pick it up.
Triode,
I just wanted to thank you in the forums for the opportunity to repair this amp, and give it a good home. You have it all arranged down there by now, I should be down in a few weeks to pick up from my friend, and meet you if you have the time.
Thanks again
Jeff
