I am really in two minds about selling these fantastic little amps, but I could do with freeing up some cash, and I really don't need 5 sets of amplification. I am in no real hurry though, so low offers will be dismissed politely.

Generally well reviewed 25W class ab monoblocks in near mint condition. Details/specifications on the Graham Slee website. I bought them new, and have owned them for just over a year and have used them to drive my Cyrus CLS70 and FH3s (where they were mounted on the speaker).

I am looking for £900 + postage.

New pictures added above. If you look closely, you can see a small black mark on the side of one of the amps, (near the speaker terminals, above and behind the screws).
They will come with the 48V power supplies, and the brackets you see to mount them onto a speaker, should you wish.

Data taken from the Graham Slee website:
Features:
25 Watts into 8 Ohms / 45 Watts into 4 Ohms
High biased discrete transistor power amp – not class D or T
Rugged 25 Amp 30MHz output transistors
No DC offset on output – safe to leave speakers connected
Balanced or single-ended line level input
High-end professional gold plated XLRs on input and power
Can be used free standing — or remotely on loudspeakers (brackets supplied)
Individual volume control can be "parked" at full when controlled from a preamp
Effective heat radiator case for comfortable high-bias running
Individual 120 Watt remote switchmode power supply with each Proprius

Interest shown from Sweden, but here is the best type of bump I am allowed to post on a forum.
