TEECO model 955 (by Truesound, LA CA, USA)

Description: This integrated amplifier is a great amp for serious music at restricted budgets. Just as it is, it will blow away many amplifiers costing several times its price. But it is also a prime candidate to put some more new technology magic into, to really make it sing for low power / high efficiency speaker setups.

This amplifier operates completely with triode circuitry and operates single ended. It uses one 6BQ5 / EL84 pentode per channel as output, which is used in triode mode. There are no other pentodes in this amplifier! The driver consists of a 12AX7. The result is amazing detail, air and vibrancy in musicality close in sound to my other custom modified much more involved 6BQ5 Amp.

Tubes: Output: 6BQ5 / EL84 (2 - 1 per Channel), Driver: 1 12AX7. Phono Pre Amp: 1 12AX7, 1 6CA4 / EZ81 Rectifier.
This amp came with an Amperex Bugle Boy EZ81 and Mullard 6BQ5s which are included. They are old, but sound superb to new tubes.

Condition: Contacts, controls and switches are restored. There is a slight hum at high volume settings with no signal, indicating the need for new filter caps at some point in the future. At some time in the past it seemed to have been repaired: One of the output transformers was replaced with a different, but also good quality one. I could not hear a difference between the channels. As with most amplifiers of this age the volume controls do not track entirely even across their range between channels. This is a none issue on this amp, as they are separate, yet eliminating the need for a balance control and thus eliminating the need for an extra step in the signal path (which is good). Case: the lower part, which encloses the electronics is in good shape. The cover was somewhat aggravated by dust and the paint is not as solid as the bottom. No deep rust. Some scratches, slight bends. Face plate shows signs of oxidization ( ugly) , probably liquid spill or neglect. The photo, due to high compression, looks really bad. Let me send you a higher quality resolution one,

Price: $85.00
Lot: amplifier, fully tubed
