When Dennis Had moved from control of the company the Audio Electronic division was first to go. I don't see many 6 pacs available, but do see the latest Super Amp MkII available, which I own, through various dealers. The SA mkII is a wonderful sounding and involving amp, and best yet is it uses the newer USA transformers as in the current Cary products. At 40 wpc UL and 20 wpc triode they sound spectacular for me and drive my vintage Altec Model 15s perfectly. Another great thing is it achieves full power with only 1 volt input so it is perfect for a passive preamp or variable output from a DAC or cdp with one. I've had mine for 3.5 years and love it.
