Lazarus Vintage Hybrid Tube Amplifier For Parts/Repair

The Lazarus Hybrid Amplifier is a rare and highly sought-after hybrid stereo power amplifier designed by Greg Miller and built in North Hollywood, California. It runs a cascode-connected 6DJ8 dual triode input stage driving complementary MOSFET output devices, with all circuit voltage gain derived from the tube front end and no overall feedback loop – a topology that delivers the warmth and dimensionality of tubes with the authority and control of solid-state. Power output is rated at 50 watts per channel into 8 ohms in Class A, doubling to 100 watts into 4 ohms and 200 watts into 2 ohms, with the ability to bridge to mono for 200 watts into 8 ohms. Owners consistently praise its ability to reproduce the deepest soundstages they’ve encountered, with zero listening fatigue even after extended sessions – a testament to the amp’s fundamentally musical character. Built like a tank in a 2U rack-format chassis weighing 35 lbs, the H-1A is an extraordinarily rare piece of American audio history that competes comfortably with amplifiers costing many times its original price. In good cosmetic condition, has some scratches/marks, see pictures for details. The unit has been cleaned inside and out to remove dust, debris, and surface blemishes. The interior was carefully vacuumed using a soft-bristle brush to ensure gentle yet effective dust removal without damaging internal components. Only comes with what you see in the pictures which includes the unit itself only. Unit powers on but the DC offset measured too high for safe use and testing so it has been deemed a for parts/repair unit. The unit was not tested further after the DC offset was measured. Please note the unit does not include tubes. At HTF Audio, we put care into every unit we list-cleaned, tested, and ready for its next home. Unlike general resellers, we focus mainly on audio gear, so everything we sell gets hands-on attention, from detailed functional testing to cosmetic work.
