International buyers, please wait for invoice before paying. This is from my personal collection. More premium vintage gear coming soon! This listing is for the 2 amplifiers pictured. They are priced to sell, super super cheap for this quality! Here is a super pair of Baldwin D520-10H 40 Watt field coil amplifiers from 1950! Holy Smokes, look how clean these are! These have been in my collection for decades and I have always kept them in a heated and air-conditioned building! The serial numbers are 7251 and 7253. These were made almost one after another on the assembly line. Each amplifier uses: (4) 6l6GC, (2) 5U4G and (1) 6SN7GT. Tubes are not included. I used these amplifiers years ago and they worked great. I have not had them on in a while, transformers are guaranteed, and I would recommend a quick recap to bring these back to these full glory! These amplifiers really sound great. We ran these on a pair of extremely old field coil Lansing speakers and just loved them. I’ll never forget that light airy sound with stereo imaging that I just haven’t heard of since. Great to find a wonderful stereo pair in such wonderful condition. The red manual IS NOT included! We use all brand new boxes and packing material from Uline. Each amplifier will be packed separately, so you will receive 2 boxes.

Sophia Electric’s latest. Is a revolutionary product that delivers superior high resolution, wider bandwidth (high-frequency and bass extension), and musicality unmatched by any vintage 5U4 family rectifier tubes. Learning from their experience with the 274B, Sophia Electric’s designers crafted this tube to be 1/3 274B and 2/3 5U4G. The result is a magical-sounding tube at a lower price than the 274B, with broader compatibility in real-life applications. The only trade-off for delivering such high sonic performance is a limitation in maximum current capability. The maximum current is 200-220mA at 450V DC. It may not be suitable as a replacement for 5AR4/5U4 if only one rectifier is used for both channels in a push-pull 6L6, EL34, or KT66 amplifier. It performs best when each channel has its own rectifier tube. The lifespan of the tube is directly related to how hard the tube is operated to its maximum specifications. If used within its design parameters, it will be a super reliable tube, much like vintage 5U4 tubes have proven to be. Now that I have about ten hours of playing time on them, I’m confident in saying that they are exactly what I was hoping for. The Sophia blue glass 5U4G tubes are now in my Cary SLI-80 integrated amp featuring all factory upgrades. They replace nos RCA 5U4G rectifier tubes. When I need additional tubes, I will think of Sophia first. I’m using it it in the power stage of my Woo Audio headphone amp, and out of the box it sounds truly amazing. Currently, I have a quad of Sophia Electric EL 34s in my tube amp, your rectifier tubes in my preamp and headphone amp, and a 6SN7 in the preamp. I also have the incredible Magik Box.
