Professionally made by Les Wolstenholme himself not a kit.
If you are familiar with Les's work then this amplifier should need little introduction. If not, please visit http://www.avondaleaudio.com to learn more about the NCC200 circuit and amplifier boards.
This is one of the most recent power amplifiers from Avondale, building on the previous S100 model.
Owners say that the S101 is the best of the NAP200, NAP250, NAP250.2 bunch. It is closest in specification to the NAP250 but with a dual mono design and higher quality components. It achieves the same great levels of pace, rhythm and timing as the Naim amps, but with greater control and a quieter background.

I am happy to post the amplifier but may also be able to deliver. £600http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk162/djroom2/_57-2_zpslvnnfazx.jpg (http://s280.photobucket.com/user/djroom2/media/_57-2_zpslvnnfazx.jpg.html)http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk162/djroom2/_57_zpsyyc55w2b.jpg (http://s280.photobucket.com/user/djroom2/media/_57_zpsyyc55w2b.jpg.html)http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk162/djroom2/_57-3_zpsmeccfjtr.jpg (http://s280.photobucket.com/user/djroom2/media/_57-3_zpsmeccfjtr.jpg.html)http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk162/djroom2/_57-5_zps1mwhson0.jpg (http://s280.photobucket.com/user/djroom2/media/_57-5_zps1mwhson0.jpg.html)http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk162/djroom2/_57-6_zpssmmciusz.jpg (http://s280.photobucket.com/user/djroom2/media/_57-6_zpssmmciusz.jpg.html)

Is this amp still for sale? I know an interested buyer.

A very nice amp this but it's not really that close to a Nap250 in specification (as suggested above) because the Nap250 is a regulated amp and this is not, which is quite a fundamental difference.

Sorry, Mark, that's a bit of a thread crap. Replies to sale threads are *strictly* only for those interested in buying whatever is for sale, or in some way helping the seller sell what he's selling. Mods or admin, of course, may intervene on such threads when necessary.

Anything else is not permitted. If you wish to make the point you've just made, please do so by starting a separate thread about the matter in Blank Canvas, entitled along the lines of 'How similar is an Avondale S101 power amp to a Naim NAP250?'

Ta! :)

Marco.
