I'm doing my part to stimulate the economy, I bought an St-40 off CL over the weekend.
This is the upgraded version that consists of replacement resistors (six Caddocks and eight Vishays) and capacitors (four MultiCaps), Kimber silver wire to replace the output wire, Kimber KC1 to replace the input cable, and EAR isolation feet.
It's 40W/Ch with (4) JJ EL34 output tubes, and (2) Mullard 12AU7, and (1) JJ gold pin 12AX7 input tubes.
I think I am the third owner. It has complete docs, with original receipts and packaging. Including the original assembly instructions.
I gave it a one hour shake down cruise yesterday aft on my TW-1's. Sweet sounding. It'll be nice to have it alongside my PL5 powering the Maggies. What's cool about this is that the PL5 uses all the tubes the St-40 does, and I can roll the input tubes from the PL5 into the St-40 also (and vice versa).
