For sale - my mint Leben CS300 amplifier. Looks pretty much new and had full set of valves in September last year. I've owned it since October and it's worked perfectly and is silent in use. A very dynamic and snappy amplifier, well made and beautiful to look at. I'll come back one again at some point but I've an itch to scratch with 300B sticking out the top of it!

Not at all, thanks for the link. I don't feel happy about selling it and to be honest, it's a gamble on the it's replacement being suitable but I can't afford to have both.
The Leben is quite a complete amplifier that I'll be very sad to say good bye to.

Looks very nice. I heard these act as good headphone amps too!

I believe so yes.

This was well recieved at the midlands bake off last year driving JBLs. It's not a soft sounding valve amp and the bass grip is a real strong point.

Looks like the amp I was going to have is no longer available so before I withdraw from sale (I need to raise around 5-600 quid to balance my books really)...I'd consider a Px with an amp of value upto £600, preference for integrated with valves or class A with around 8w or more.

To be honest I don't think the hiraga would compete with the Leben - but I'm sure someone has something worthy of an exchange.

Pop a pic up of the hiraga anyway Adey. You've done a cracking job with it

Here you go - but my mobile camera is shi*t! And yes, the hiraga is enormous.

There's a pair of speakers I'd really like to buy (I currently own none!) but can't do anything until I've sold this 'bump' ! :)

I was without speakers for a couple of weeks, it seemed like a lot longer.

No longer for sale

Bourney

Back available. One of my amps has to go to allow me to buy speakers of my own. Honestly can't decide between the two so best to let fate decide.
