FS: Bob Carver 305 tube amps. Brand New In The Box

Brand new in the box. Never run.
Taking serious offers only.
Please TXT or PM your offers. 239-410-1622

We all know they are worth $8,000 - $10,000 easy... $12,999 if you went to a brick and mortar shop.
I'd suggest anyone wanting a set, BUY THIS SET... they just might be one of those things (you can't get anymore) one day :-"

They come with KT-120's Eric and as for the small tubes I know at least one is a 12AX7.

Re: FS: Bob Carver 305 tube amps. Brand New In The Box

They are in excelent condition, i took the photos myself, the set in the photo has KT120's, but i am not sure what all the little ones are... these are also the NEW model with the DC Restore cuicuit in them, they run cool enough to pull a tube out after 3-4 hours of 80-90db levels, with the amps still on.

It's too bad you're getting rid of these dad, if you are thinking about getting rid of the subrosa, message me first, maybe we can work something out....
