Overview
The F-07 is one of four integrated amps in the current lineup. As the most “junior” model of the range, it is spec to deliver 100W in 8 ohm and 170W in 4 ohm. The F-05, which is the model just above it puts out 120W but retails for $1,500 more at $10,000. The top two integrated amps in the range are the F-03a ($14,000 MSRP) and the flagship, Grandiso F1 which retails for $27,000. Both these models are 30W Class A integrateds. The F-07 at $8,500 MSRP is quite a bargain when you factor in the industrial strength build and finish of the unit. Add the sonic excellence of the F-07 and it becomes quite apparent it is a “reference” bargain. The clarity, transparency and detail it brings to your system is first rate. The 100W in 8 ohm and 170W in 4 ohm should be more than sufficient in most application but if you need just a bit more oomph, consider the F-05. Inputs are fairly standard with four line inputs, a pair of XLR input and a phono input where you can select MM or MC from the front panel.
Cosmetically, the unit is in very good shape. Minor scuff marks/nicks from use but nothing major. We have the original box, manual and remote. Unit is pretty hefty and the large box it ships in will add some premium to the shipping.
