    This listing is for a Very Rare Pair of UTC LS-63 (output transformers) Linear Standard Amplifiers that some have called "the Better Williamson".
    Below is an advertisement regarding the advent of the amplifier which was I believe in 1956.
    From what I understand some had called this amplifier as "The Better Williamson" because of its superior performance to the standard  Williamson design.
    Both amplifiers have been re-capped and also refurbished with new paint so they are ready for many more years of use.
    They are one of the best sounding KT66 and 6L6 type family of tube amps around and are extremely rare and hard to find.
    Cosmetically they are in pretty nice shape.
    Due to age the amplifiers are being sold AS IS.
    Disclaimer: When buying almost 50 and 50 plus year old electronic equipment that has not had all parts replaced with new parts there is always the possibility with failure to the 50 year old part/s at any time. Some of the electronic part/s may continue for another 50 years without need of replacement and some electronic part/s may fail a few days after you start using the item. The item will arrive to you in the working condition as described in the listing but I am not responsible for what might happen to the electronics part/s after the item is received in working order due to the age of the electronic part/s.
