MasterSounD Due Venti S.E. 220 

 
Single-ended Triode, Class-A stereo integrated amplifier
 
1 pair (2) EL34 tubes handle 20 watts of power per channel and run in a single ended design. 40 Watts total output into 8ohms
 
Features:
  • Auto Bias 
  • Soft on/off feature 
  • 5 inputs
  • 1 variable pre-out (subwoofer output).
  • 4ohm and 8ohm speaker terminals with top grade solid copper binding post.
  • Inhouse and hand wound transformers.
  • Proprietary circuit board with extra thick traces.
  • Hand point to point soldering using high quality sleeved copper wire.
  • Gold plated RCA binding posts.
  • Upgraded NOS tubes for both power and pre-amp section. 
 
Tubes are :
4 - SED / Winged "C" EL34- $480 
2 - GE ECC82- $42
 
 
Wood is in fantastic shape and is NOT a veneer. Its a solid block of high grade mahogany stained and sealed in a natural finish.  
Amp was recently cleaned and the stainless steel top plate was buffed and polished. Fuses were replaced with fresh units. 

Comes with printed manual and original shipping box
 
These models did not come with a remote until 2008. The manufacture did not want a motorized volume knob unless it was silent in operation and in the signal path.  
 
MasterSound is a very well respected amplifier manufacture that tries to do as much independently as they can. They do believe that the details in the signal path matter and do add up. As a result this amplifier does NOT allow for any KT77, KT88,or KT100 tubes. MasterSound was very particular about this because the circuity that would be needed to allow for the swapping of different power tubes would not create the sound profile they wanted. As many love the sweet musical nature that E34 tubes bring to the table, their goal was to provide that specific tube the best power, signal and enviorment possible from a single ended Class-A design. The have always stayed true to this and offer the Due Trenta for KT88 applications.
 
Despite it being ratted at 20 watts per channel, its presents with  a lot more powerful and authority than that. I expect this has to do with the hand made transformers and its single ended operation.
 
It's heavy! 50.70 pounds w/o box.
