HiFi audio gear and components to trade for laser gear

Hello everyone...since my firstborn baby arrived today I will be getting out of my former hobby of DIY audio. I have enough stuff built to last me several years. Due to the amount of labor and time involved with building speakers and amplifiers and such I am switching to building a few lasers since most of it can be done in the kitchen. I have listed several items over at diyAudio swap meet under jmillerdoc...what's there is only the tip of the iceberg. I have many ultra high quality drivers like Focal, Morel, Vifa, Fostex, and more. I also have tons of high end audio components like transistors, ICs, inductors, capacitors, built or partially built amplifiers, CD players, DACs and DAC components, output transformers, line matching transformers, power transformers, electron tubes, etc, etc...the list goes on. I even have some speakers in kit form as well as some very high quality enclosures that just require the baffles cut for drivers and the boxes stuffed with the XO parts. If it's HiFi and DIY chances are if you name it I may have it. I am looking to trade some of this stuff off for some good laser components, hosts, etc...to get me started with building a few lasers.
If your reading this I assume you have some interest. Feel free to send me an email at millerjeff at ccmhonline dot com. I would love to talk with you more about what I may have to trade.
Thanks for looking!
Jeff

Do you happen to have a pair of SS 18W/8535?

Any nice 10" 16 ohm speakers?

Any NOS EL84, 6bQ5?

Any NOS ECC83?

I would be interested in the above, would really help if you posted a list of what you actually have to trade. I have a ton on lasers, which I do not use, more of a guitar player than an audiophile but am not looking for anything specific.


Best regards,

I may have an older pair of Alnico 10" 16ohm drivers...I need to check. I also have some tubes you are looking for...they are buried deep, give me a couple of days and I will see what I can find.

I will put a list together but there is no way I can make an exaughstive one...too much stuff.

I have a pair of the 8535's but unfortunately they are mounted in my main pair of listening speakers...a clone of ProAc 2.5 response. I will sell the pair of clones whole but not parted out. $900 plus shipping for the clones...they are very nice done in solid Koa and cherry veneer. Best pair of speakers I have built in a floor stander two way. Lots of bass and pinpoint imaging.

I know I have some ECC83/12AX7's but I also have some of the rarer variants of the 12AX7 that have a different gain (around 70 instead of the 100). I hear they are popular for the guitar crowd due to the smoother distortion/overdrive they produce. I can't recall what tue tube number is called...maybe an 6001 or something like that..I will have to check..I got one or two somewhere in a box.

I have an incredible selection of NOS tubes, BTW....

Alright man, sounds good! When you check through your tube stash.

Shoot me a PM when you are done.

Think you mean the 5751 tube? I get great enjoyment from tube rolling, so also that would be welcome. :beer:

Yes, 5751... I believe I have some of these somewhere....we moved to a new house 2 months ago and everything is in boxes...it will take me a couple of days to get around to finding these, I had no system of storing them when we moved..I knew I would pay a price for it too...I probably have over 6000 different tubes!

Feel free to email me in the future at millerjeff at ccmhonline dot com.

Let me know what kind of laser stuff you have...I am particularly interested in different diodes.
