I HAVE THE BEST PRICE FOR THIS NILES POWER AMPLIFIER ON REVERB!  

Super Clean inside and Out! 
Just Completely gone through and Re-capped by a Highly regarded local Tech who specializes in this sort of High Wattage gear.  He specializes in McIntosh gear which are some of the most difficult to work on and get right! He spend 6 hours going through Niles Power Amp!  

I have been running this unit for the past two hours on Saturday 5/15/20 starting at around 8pm pst with a Carver Preamp which Inwill also be listing and with a Technics SL-1300 turntable and Klipsch Quartet speakers with amazing results!  

Rare and unusual Solid State Stereo Amplifier.  A Powerhouse Monster Power Amplifier that offers 480 total combined Watts into 8 Ohm. 
Everything works excellently and it looks Excellent with only the smallest amount of marks on the black metal case. This is a One Family owned unit. My uncle would buy these units, use them for a short time, box them up and then move onto something else that was either interesting or popular for that time period. This modern unit has seen very little use, probably less than 40 hours.  This Power Amp is conservatively rated at 480 Watts into 8 ohm, that is 240 watts per side. Some online forums discuss that this Amp is much more than 240 Watts into 8 Ohm on each side when used for a single stereo speaker configuration. This unit sounds more like a 600 watt amplifier. Amazing sound, especially with Digital systems and analog ensembles consisting of a turntable.
This Rare and Excellent unit is the Only Fully Functional and Recapped one on Reverb.  Others are listed as Brand New But potentially Untested!  Mine is fully serviced Recapped where needed and Currently Running! 

This unit looks Excellent and Functions Excellently! Very little was needed, a few transistors, resistors and Two output capacitors and that was it!  

Please understand that I do not have my items pre-packed or pre-boxed. I am not Amazon, I am just a guy selling over 60 years of a family member's collection of mostly vintage and some modern audio items! 

Ships from San Marcos California. Packed exceptionally well! If bought Monday through Thursday, I will ship within 3 Business Days. If bought Friday, Saturday or Sunday I will ship out by the following Tuesday!

Price is Firm! However, the price is Negotiable If you buy 2 or more of my Reverb items concurrently!
Thank You! ; )
