Blue Circle BC2 - Hybrid Single Ended Class A Monoblocs - October 2024 Service

There arent many amplifiers that can make the QLS-1s look small (or normal size) but these dual monobloc amplifiers will do it! I am loving the fully wood chassis that is accentuated by the front brushed faceplates. These amps are around 30 years old but are in virtually immaculate condition, the original owner had them stored for 20 years. Unfortunetly this means that many of the capacitors for the output stage and B+ have dried up and are starting to fail, causing symptoms such as a loud thump on turn off due to the caps discharging faster than they should, I believe the input section is actually powering off before the output! No worries as this should be a fairly straightforward repair, and with the weather getting colder, I am looking forward to warming up my living room by testing these Class A beauties.
