FS or swap Unison Smart 845 Monoblock power amps

[Floyddroid]

Looking for £1900 or swap for stereo power amp of approximately the same value. Beautifully made and sound good. In full working order. I do not have the boxes (crates) so collection would be preferable from my home near Hartlepool in the North East. I am happy to video the amps working and to clean the amps with a soap solution prior to hand over which of course would observe social distancing rules. These beatiful beast cannot be entrusted to a courier, sorry. Thanks for looking.:)

Oh, i forgot to mention that the driver valves are all Mullard.

[bumpy]

I would caution against wiping down the amps with bleach. You could cause untold damage to the finishes.

[Floyddroid]

Not with the solution i have at my disposal for cleaning medical equipment.

Wonderful looking amps Steve.
I see Giovanni (founder of UR) died 10th May.

[struth]

ooh, very nice.. a work of art those cabs

Yes he did indeed. Very sad. He created some beautiful gear. These amps are rather splendid and to be honest if my C5P pre-amp had two pre-out Phono out puts I would keep them and get a more powerful amp to drive the bass with which is why I text you dude. I suppose my other option would be to intergate a sub?

[Floyddroid]

They are indeed.

You could just use Y connectors Steve, which would be the same as a pre with two sets of outputs- all they usually do is wire the second pair in parallel with the first, so electrically the same as using Y connectors.

Mmm, I will source a pair.

[Qwin]

Yeh Ali's right Steve, there would be no compromise on sound quality if that's all that's stopping you.
The Y connectors are usually 2 into 1 leads.
You can get RCA splitters as well like this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Phono-Splitter-Joiner-Adapter-2-RCA-Sockets-to-RCA-plug/382841969809?_trkparms=ispr%3D1&hash=item592328dc91:g:0YQAAOSws6Regf0T&enc=AQAEAAACYIQvEcHUrT7nmUC3yY5qbPyaBN1nJEDYW8Myyp sJPgXKaFyUg1tw9TQKj31K0YJ0%2F1ugquP84deNKVtHFvnPxC Mvnpn1fe5suuwGlJrZPIoy6Jm%2FLZpv%2BwRlC4MFcTcm8rhu I0Tqt870TjYKnbGNW3SIAM7H7IQUGkcLU%2FNxi27V%2F75Hcq HV%2Bp3IxAh%2FKNpw5BAhXDQWI6vx4KsCLfWIDQd%2FY7DW4e hfSI9FLSdRIipxzOy%2Fj2dpuPfC7Fd%2FmqQZC12IAd82RWTg wsZsROQiHZX61iZ7lY4ocDJgHf%2B9JFQL2VvYxshgZi5OFnlU eacC1aOehob4CBRz9fXt94OK7JLTLcU%2FKsDE5oS%2FXkfaYN GLHjcgqm4Czr%2BN8sw3ukmg2i5NgyG0AYIAH5sYkxVWb6SQok z9kfySjwLbWoxjiVbqwqloNGZClYoEg7XrCugFt4fFwGr%2BgQ NNyqKdRCMylHDC0DGYP67uSzjzCWypD6Or%2FaFsfnPZ%2BNG2 gr2lFPNmXl0p6gCXs1pBt9dcez0bMoVu60%2FNlpfn2G36O9A3 c%2FMs1h5y%2FfwBSQYEqVe2vvTHR64Sh8p4Sc8ksZm9A8HeuB GE%2FwGDZxqpuCFhAc%2FWIv6iwey7T1EOZefKRxoAKYlPDe4X Awg2LnVoziuTTgaRqM7T8kgd1Qcy7qw3aNUeeHSQ91%2BdAtoL cOhyJhhARqmD4Im7gvXPyl2Mp7X6gEFh6coQuysM0%2FZP9%2B NKK2P%2FDfNZnpJOfKjCVU8rluA%2Fh5U4sthaUNpMEwfGLnTN Q641tFXowGfXiMzEYc2DtxWI8bVS&checksum=382841969809ef97e1c36894499ead8f6abd7abcf e61

Up for sale again due to buyer backing out.

[Floyddroid]

Back up for sale due to time waster. These beautifully crafted SET monoblocks are in good condition and sound rather good too. I don't have proper cartons and boxed them as best i can. They are very heavy. I would rather not use a large courier company as they may damage them so collection from my home on Teessise is prefered though i am prepared to meet at a reasonable distance to hand over the amps observing social distancing or use a point to point courier. Looking for £1900. All driver valves are Mullard. I would consider a swap for a high end cd player or phono stage of a similar value.

Sensible offers considered

[Infiniteloop]

I have the integrated S8 which also uses the slightly scary 845 power tubes. It sounds beautiful. All UR Amps are beautifully designed and made and should last a lifetime. I’m tempted by these, but would have to part with the S8 to do so, which I’m loathe to do.
I’m seriously considering a Chord Hugo TT2 which has a preamp section so these would work.

Do what I always do, buy the thing you want to try and compare with your current one for a few weeks. Keep the one you prefer and sell the other one with little or no loss.
