    Default FS - Firebottle Dulci El84 SE amp

    I have been very impressed with the Ducli.
    Silly money for what you get.

    The piece of kit i have owned the longest.
    (could be withdrawn at any time!)

    It is 5.5 wpc.
    Drives my Kef coda 3 with 87db sensitivity to more than ample volume in a 4.5 x 4.5m room
    Similarly with my ref 3m de capo i

    Built by firebottle (AOS).
    It was converted to SE and the build thread is on AOS if you hunt for it.
    All new capacitors, etc.
    I have been using a lot since i got it, and it hasn't put a foot wrong.
    And sounds excellent.

    Comes with a mullard and mazda el84.
    Mullard matched pair pcc85.

    A lot of extra nos pcc85 are included -
    telefunken
    mullard
    lorenz
    valvo
    siemens s&h
    miniwatt

    So tube rolling of some of the big names at a fraction o the cost as they are not the most common valves used.

    Selling for what is cost me.
    £338.

    Collection from eton wick / windsor.
    Possible postage at cost.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    I can do some excellent condition kef coda 3 with these for 65.
    But they would be collection from grantham, lincs.
    They go really well together.
