For Sale - Phase Linear - 8 fin

[R1200S]

This one came out of a single-wide trailer in the middle of nowhere, north of Kernersville, NC, 5 or 6 years ago. It was hooked to a set of very early Infinity speakers with those Walsh 'ice cream cone' drivers on top. They rocked!!

This one is fully functional. I tested it recently and it sounded great. The RCA jacks seemed loose but that may have been the cheap adapter cable from my iPhone I was using. Cosmetically it's in great shape and the transistor covers are all there. This one has been worked on, half the power transistors have been replaced. The meters bounce around like they're supposed to. I never did get them really swinging as I was driving some small easy to drive speakers. Bulbs are burned out as expected.

In case you're wondering this 8-fin is still for sale. I have to apologize that I don't keep up with the forum posts like I used to. Please PM me if needed. I'll try to keep recheck these postings more frequently.

I've had these 3 amps for almost 10 years and never put any of them into service. Best laid plans..... They're packaged in double corrugated boxes and surrounded with a minimum of 2 inches of EPS foam.

What are the four 1/4 inch jacks on the side?

I'm not exactly sure but I'd suspect they're duplicates of the speaker and input jacks but as 1/4" phono plugs instead of bananas and RCA jacks. This would make it easier to plug into commercial equipment. You can see what they've done in the last picture.
