AUDIO NOTE P2-SE SIGNATURE SOUND SINGLE ENDED TUBE AMPLIFIER PRE AMP SUPERB

Description

I am offering for your consideration from my personal collection this P2-SE an excellent single ended tube amplifier by the famous British super high end manufacturer AUDIO NOTE best known for their ,000.00 SE amp. named Ongaku. Google it.
I have been collecting some rare audio pieces and audiophiling for well over 30 years and had many interesting audio "gems" in my collection, however due to the lack of space at the current time and the planned move overseas, I have been selling
over the last couple of years my collection piece by piece
to discriminating audio aficionados.
(I also have a pair of absolutely mint JBL-L100 speakers, an Audible Illusions M3 pre amp. one with the phono section, a couple of pairs of Nelson Reed 12" bass drivers for their subwoofers, made by the British company Volt Speakers, Stax Lambda Electrostatic headphones with Stax tube amp., a couple of pairs of Quad ESL 57 and ESL 63 electrostatic speakers etc. etc. all of which I will be taking with me to Europe so if any parties would want to get in touch with me just drop me a message or contact on what'sup 48664864699 Giorgio).
This Audio Note P2-SE amp. is the last one of the single ended ones I had and was kept by me as the best sounding unit that also incorporates a pre amplification section thus not requiring a separate pre amp.
As can be seen in pictures the amp is almost perfect, with beautiful mirror like black glass front and full metal chassis. Because the front is so reflective it is very difficult to take right pictures in a full light, anything appearing as blemishes are just reflections of the surrounding plants, no blemishes whatsoever.
The unit sounds superb, however because this is a singled ended 18 Watts Pure Class A design it should be used with suitably high efficiency speakers, 89~90 dB or higher. It works very well with speakers of lower than the stated efficiency, (e.g. I used it with a few
different Sonus Faber monitors ~87 dB). The driver tubes are new, Russian equivalent of the 6SL7 tubes, but I find that the NOS Sylvania or RCA sound a little bit sweeter so I would suggest them for the best sound quality, the power tubes have some usage on them and might need replacement in the future. They are all in working shape but cannot specify how much life is left in them. I found and would strongly recommend the original 1960's Tung Sol 5881 tubes to be the best sounding in this amp. (and many others I have tried).
I am also including the owners manual. You can contact me directly with any questions on what'sup 48664864699 Giorgio.
