Greetings Phase linear
Fans. 10 years ago, I was one of the largest collectors of Phase linear in the
USA if not the World. I had been collecting Phase Linear since the 1970’s. The
Gentlemen in Washington State who used to work at Phase Linear are the only
ones I am aware of with larger collections. I believe they have sold most of
these collections off. I recently realized I still have 2 huge 800 square foot
stereo vaults with storage racking to the ceiling full of Phase linear
equipment. There is some infill of Pioneer and Carver for the units that Phase
Linear simply did not offer as options. I also have more Phase Linear fans than
I will ever use. I have collected my Phase Linear units from around the world.
At one-point I had gone through ~20% of the entire 1400 series II equalizers
production in my search for the perfect ones for my system. A full 50% of my
collection is NOS and the rest is MINT originals. You should know the
manufacturing process was a rough one on the units. NOS is no guarantee of
perfection. Perfection came with going through untold numbers of units in
service that were collected, and parts that were made mint over time were
interchanged out into one unit (or more). I have spoken to both the designers
and builders of the units who were charitable with their time. They shared the
history, production and design of these beautiful units. Fully half of ALL the
NOS units I procured had blemishes on them. Even when the 4 pallets of NOS 3500
series II pre-amps were found I bought a dozen of those units to get the
flawless ones I have now (combined with the additional collected out in-service
unit mint parts). My 7000 series II tape deck alone took 20 units (including a
NOS one) to get one with absolute MINT unblemished parts. What I have left is a
large collection of very nice units across the board of Phase Linear to sell
off. It is time to enjoy the decades of collecting and hard work.
There was a time I
sold Phase linear fans but I was not satisfied by the way they were turning
out. So, I stopped. You might be able to tell I am a little bit obsessive
and perfectionist (to your benefit). I had collected over time
several blemished original fans, spare parts as well as a collection out of an
old stereo shop. Recently I thought it was time to get back to doing things
right and offer them once again. The supply of these is limited. The condition
of the fans is as good as you could ever possibly get. These were done right
and are blemish free. If there are any marks, again they are from the
production process. Missing panels were replaced with laser cut mates. All
finishes were done again, but this time in power coated finishing. This finish
is a very close match to the original finishes but far more durable. I do have
a few extra original unrestored 700 fan side panels if someone is interested?
They are simply left over from this process. I also have some extra Phase
Linear decals available.
The 400-amp series fan is a VERY, VERY hard to
find item. The 400 fans fit ALL 400 series I & II amps. These are
wider than the 700 series fan due to the 700-fin separation being narrower. The
fan shroud assemblies for the 400 and 700 series simply slide snugly over the
cooling fins at the back and 2 alligator clips then hold the shroud to the fins
at the bottom. No modifications or work is required at all. The D or Dual
500 fans require 2 special high tolerance mounting brackets. These cooling fans
really are a must if you use your amplifiers for any length of time at all. The
heat buildup will trigger the amp to cut out despite the passive efforts of the
cooling fins at the back of the units. These Fans have been promoted in
the past as necessary to avoid burning out the main board on the amps and
earned the Phase Linear amps the nickname of “Flame Engineering”. This is
more myth than fact. However, many of the 700 amps I have run did kick off
after about 45 minutes due to heat buildup. It is/was a common problem.
THERE ARE NO RETURNS. So, buy well. Buyer’s remorse has little
sympathy here especially your children biding when you are not
around.
THE WINNING BIDDER HAS
CHOICE FOR MORE FAN SHROUDS AT A REDUCED PRICE IF THEY SO CHOOSE.
I will be offering the
Phase Linear 700 series fan shrouds and full units as well. As well as all
models in the 220–240-volt units if you are abroad, or running your own power
on 220-240 volts. See my other eBay ads for those units.
I will list these
only as long as they are bringing their value here at auction on eBay. My time
is too limited to spend on losing propositions on fine equipment. I do have
many other things to do if no one wants these. If there is adequate interest, I
will start listing the majority of my extra Phase Linear, Pioneer, and other
assorted vintage equipment to self-off as time allows for testing and cleaning.
Thank you for your forbearance and time.
