Rawson Resale......


I've noticed that no one holds onto a Rawson amp for very long. Everyone raves but can't wait to unload it...now that doesn't make sense. Can someone explain this phenomenon to me?

Wwoof01, I've purchased FIVE of Tim's amps and have enjoyed every one! Two of the five were purchased from other members, who claimed to be selling only due to Tim building them even better versions. The first gainclone I purchased was replased with a dual mono version and the Aleph clone I have will ONLY be replaced if I can convince him to build a more powerful version.
In fact, Tim's amps have replaced all but my tube monoblocks!
So how does one buy an amp from Mr. Rawson?

He does not respond here or to his e-mails.
Cdc,

One keeps their eye on the classifieds here on Audiogon. He has an amp for sale right now, and had another this morning but it's gone already, meaning he sold it right away. I got lucky with mine as he posted it late at night and I saw it quickly.

I think he's trying to get away from making amps build-to-order because he's starting to get treated like a manufacturer, rather than just a hobbyist who likes to build and try amps.

I got a First Watt F4 clone that's fabulous with my Druids. I had bought the PC boards to build it myself, but his price was low enough it made more sense to just buy his already built. He's also been very helpful with my follow-up questions.

Cdc,
Tim stays busy with his offerings and may not respond right away. He however will give you any info you need before treading the waters. I may be looking to unload a dual mono bpa 300 shorly. Tim built this special and this version has two trannies for true dual mono output.
