MC-805 single ended triode class A tube monoblocks. Bought these right from China. Showed up in firecracker boxes! You pays your money and you takes your chances. Two bad tubes, blew resistors. My friend Joe D'Angelo was the go to guy to straighten these out. Fourty watts each, powered by 805 ham radio transmitter tubes.Magical, warm, but not sparkling. Great with horn speakers and electroststats. Meixing is one of the largest factories in China. Surprisingly quiet, not good if you have young children or pets. Very hot, and if you urinate on these they will kill you! A lot of bang for the buck for a couple of grand!
Pictured below them is the 767 phono pre- also gorgeous! Didn't quite have enough gain for my system.
