for years. They could not get a decent price for it in the past.
Now, even though new ones are available, old Serge
modules have developed the mystical vintage twinkle lala
factor. So, people are willing to pay multiples of the
original price.
Remember: It's either that, or pay Rex a similar price
and wait several months for delivery.
Greatest irony is, this stuff is cheap....
You should see what old McIntosh and Marantz
tube hi-fi amps are selling for. And don't even
ask about certain NOS tubes........a matched pair of
new-in-the-box, genuine MOV Genalex KT88s can
easily set you back $850.......count your blessings......
