FS: Torrii III, which I bought from a fellow forum member (Lon) in 2019, had the warranty renewed then.  I need to make room for a new purchase.

I am asking for $2,700 and tubes with local pickup in the Phoenix metro area.

The Torii has the beeswax cap upgrade, the treble and bass controls, and the stepped attenuator upgrade with the walnut base. The attenuator was replaced at the time of warranty renewal.

Also available at a fair negotiated price:
George Merrill Heirloom Turntable, power/speed controller, stix tone arm with new Sumiko amethyst mm cartridge
John Dunlavy SC-I speakers
Auralic Altair Streaming Dac

Again, want to avoid shipping and looking to hear from Phoenix area Decware fans.

Hi Lon.

Indeed, a long time since we last chatted! I am traveling today to see family in the LA area and, by coincidence, picking up the Sarah 300B that was recently posted for sale and necessitated the offloading of this amazing amp to maintain my happy life with Judith.  

This was an impulse purchase, but I can justify sacrificing the Torii. I went down the rabbit hole and purchased a Chinahifi 300B amp two years ago and added WE 300tubes. Despite the negative press about the Wellsenton amp, it produced a sweet sound.

However, true to the reviews, it recently crashed, leaving the WE tubes without a home.  Seizing the opportunity, knowing I could be pushing daisies given the wait time, and true to Freddie Mercury's Time Waits for No One, I seized the opportunity for this dream amp.

All the best to you and your family. When I return, I will send you a PM.
