give credit where it is due, dennis had founded cary audio, and was the sole owner before its sale
@jjss49 that was good to point that out.
New Dennis Had amps
Dennis Had was the chief engineer/designer at Cary audio and is responsible for bringing back single ended amps in the US. Since his retirement he has been making boutique amps and selling them on eBay when he has one to sell. The Firebottle KT-88 is a single ended pentode amp that can take a huge variety of tubes. I love mine. He has also been selling a 300b SE amp. Looks like he has a bunch more models in the pipeline.

There’s a huge range of prices ranging from the $1500 “Kleen Sweep” using what looks like 6bg6 tubes up to the $8500 PSE 300b amp. There is also a SE 46, 6v6, and even a 7c5 amp in the mix as well.
It’s so nice seeing someone building for the love of it. He only builds what he likes and doesn’t need to make a living at it. Truly every DIY builder’s dream:)
