    Description

    Sherwood S8000 Stereo FM Tube Receiver in
    good working condition and nice cosmetic condition. It was professionally serviced two years ago by an experienced vintage technician and sounds fabulous. Comes with the original quad of Sylvania USA 7868 power tubes and most of the original small signal tubes.  Please see the pictures to judge condition.
    This receiver is running the original Sylvania USA made 7868 power tubes which still test strong.  In addition, the receiver is loaded with most of the original Sherwood labeled smaller tubes from some of the most coveted original tube brands.  Two of the original 12AX7 tubes tested weak and were replaced.
    I have dealt with many brands of vintage gear but the tubed Sherwood units always stun me with their performance.
    The tuner on this unit sounds fabulous when locked into a station. The phono stage is amazing as are the other inputs.
    Don't miss this
    opportunity to
    acquire a well-preserved example of the rare S8000 receiver with 7868 power tubes.  Many vintage audio enthusiasts believe the original S8000 receiver and the first version S5000 integrated were the best sounding tube
    components ever produced by
    Sherwood.
    Please bid with confidence. I have sold many expensive vintage audio items with a perfect feedback rating. My packing of items is bullet-proof.; It will arrive working as described and in the cosmetic condition shown in the pictures.
    This receiver is
    also listed for sale on US Audiomart and NYC Craigslist so I reserve the right to cancel my ebay listing at any time if this sells locally.
    Local pickup in Harrison, NY (30 miles North of NYC) is available if you are local.
    If shipping is required the item will be double-boxed and overpacked to ensure safe shipment.
    Thanks for looking!
