🎛️ Overview
Classic EICO 2080 stereo tube integrated amplifier with its wood case, fully working but unrestored / not recapped. This is one of EICO’s later “Classic Series” integrated amps, running a quad of 7591 output tubes for around 35 watts per channel of vintage tube power – plenty for efficient speakers. HiFi Engine+1
If you’ve been looking for a period-correct 1960s tube integrated amp that you can enjoy now and potentially restore later, this 2080 is a very solid candidate.
🧽 Condition
- Overall: Good/Very Good vintage condition
- Faceplate: Nice overall; normal small marks and wear from age, lettering generally present
- Knobs & switches: All present and functioning; some light cosmetic wear

🔧 Service & Testing
This EICO 2080 is being sold as working but unrestored:
- Cleaning:
- Exterior wiped down and dusted
- Light interior dust removal where safely accessible
- Electronics:
- Original circuitry remains in place (no modern recap or full rebuild)
- Tubes:
- 7591 output tubes and small-signal tubes present (brands may vary – see photos for exact tube complement) Radiomuseum
- Testing (in my system):
- Powers on and comes out of standby
- Both channels play
- Inputs checked for basic function
- Controls and selector switches operate (typical minor vintage noise possible at very low levels)
Because this is a 60-ish-year-old tube amp that has not been recapped or fully restored.
