Octave Audio RE- 290 + Super Black Box Exc Condition

Selling Octave RE-290 tube amplifier with Super Black Box, retail price of $13,500.00 together. Purchased from Quintessence Audio in Chicago in late 2020 (Authorized Dealer). I have owned several Octave pieces, it is one of the best built, finest sounding and aesthetically beautiful high end audio gear I have ever owned.

Amp and SBB are in excellent condition. Will ship with manuals, in original boxes, with all the material that came with it other than the worthless cheap power cord (I threw that out).

Comes with four matched tubes new in November 2021 with low hours purchased from Upscale Audio.

• Tung Sol
• KT120
• Cryo
• "Platinum Grade" matched (Upscale Audio assigns this).

I also have four additional tubes (the originals) as spares.

I just packed it up, I cannot find a scratch or imperfection on it, so 8/10 is conservative. It was used sparingly in a reference system with high quality complimentary gear (see first picture).

Weighs 70 lbs, and will only ship insured. Once we agree on price, and you provide location, we can discuss best/safest shipping method. RE-290 and SBB ship in separate factory boxes.
