RE: I haven't bought amps in a while but I did get this and you will see why.

Posted by mcgjohn@yahoo.com on January 9, 2017 at 09:55:32:
as to rockdoc Q, yes there are at least two amps with quartets of 7189, the Sherwood S-360 and the EICO HF-30. Both are rated at 30 watts per channel. There may be others but those are the I am familiar with.

And later of course are the VTL TTs MK1 and MK2 which used a quartet of EL84s, but the OPT and power trans on these is much smaller than the EICOs.

That 1060 amp you found Mike is very interesting, Never knew sherwood made something like that, but then can't find hardly any info on the 360s either. Very nice find!

There are many who think 60-100 watts of EL84 power would be supreme.

tks
