These amps are rare nowadays. But there is still hope. After a lot of research the Matrix GT power amps use the same mosfet transistor technology as the old school mosvalve’s from the 90’s. The matrix GT power amps are no longer in production and you’re going to pay a premium price for them, but that is the other best alternative to a mosvalve 500. I got lucky and found a 500 on the forum, they about 30lbs, if you find one make sure you have it insured because mine came in shambles and luckily it was able to be saved. Cost a couple hundred to fix it and put it back together, but it works great and sounds amazing. I will never get rid of it.
Hope this helps. |

Thanks Tim: Other than my human lifespan, I'm in no hurry so maybe one will turn up.
