Modern Version of the Iconic EICO HF-81 - Steve Hoffman Music …
2016年4月18日 · For me, the best sounding tube amp I have ever heard is the EICO HF-81. Not everyone agrees, of course, but this amp has an unbelievable sweet, 3D sound, likely due to the tube complements, EL84, 12AX7, 12AU7.

2005年2月21日 · Eico does make higher powered integrated amplifiers, as well as straight amplifiers. The Eico ST-40 integrated is 20wpc and the ST-70 integrated is 35wpc.

2014年11月29日 · Eico HF 81 is a great amp. Wonderful sound. I had one that I loved. Then I had it rebuilt and it killed the magic, so I sold it. It looks like this one was done right. Someone knew what they were doing. The only variation I would have requested is to use copper wire inside instead of silver, but apparently yours sounds fantastic anyway.

2009年1月1日 · The Eico HF-81 is a very nice unit. If you want to listen fairly loud, then you will require a speaker with sensitivity over 90db and with a fairly benign impedance curve. I've owned big Tannoy's for over 8 years now (DMT15 MKII studio monitors).
