I have decided to sell my Korato V4 amp. I bought it from a HiFi forum member 2 years ago.

Since then it has had very little use (approx 200 hours) as my current speakers are far too demanding. I bought a NOS pair of GEC JAN 12AT7WC tubes to replace the Mullards which decided to give up the ghost.
The amp can be used as a single input integrated as it has a volume control mounted on the top deck - this is how I use it. The sound of this amp driving my Kralk BC-30 speakers (90 dB/W, 8 Ohm) was wonderful - effortless with sparkling highs and plenty of drive. However, a change to Boenicke W5s (83 dB/W, 4 Ohm) last year proved to be too challenging.
Specification:
Power: 10 Watts per channel (as per Jack)
Tubes: EL84 x 4; 12AU7 x 2; 12AT7 x 2
Dimensions: 382 x 337 x 176 mm (W x D x H)
Weight: 13.5 kg
Price: £475
I live in sunny Brighton and am happy for you to collect from my front door or I can arrange for courier delivery at cost (approx £35 with insurance). I will need a bit of time to sort out suitable packaging.
