The Revox B780 was manufactured in Switzerland by Studer, it combined the best of attributes of their amplifiers and tuners of the range at the time and was a state of the art classic. This one is serial no. 008261 made in late 1980. It has been professionally enhanced and restored/recapped to as good as possible condition – no faults and no sign of use. We have replaced the Nextel finish with a much more durable audio matte graphite.The amps rarity in this condition and it’s desirabilty as a prestige item is reflected in the price asked.It has an original user manual.The original 1.2v NiCad memory back-up batteries have been replaced with NiMh types matched to the charging circuit.In addition it now has the Foxland PSU enhancement module fitted to enable a faster voltage slew rate to the power amplifiers, giving a clearer and more punchy sound image across the stereo field. There is only one other B780 with this enhancement.
