I have a L2iSE and with the Tak300B tubes, it is amazingly musical, beating many high quality separates. It has been 100% reliable. Best I know they sold many of these units (very popular with most who heard it at dealers) I was told that the Rossi company sold out of the units and used the funds to retool for their next integrated that is planned to be almost 10k more in price. I was told that once the new units are out that anyone who purchased the L2iSE will be offered to trade in at the full price they paid (if purchased within last year) toward the new model. I am planning to keep my L2iSE as it truly within my system and room is the best sound I have ever experienced in 30+ years of experience, plus 10 year warranty to original owner is much appreciated. In my opinion anyone picking up a unit at a discount price is getting a true bargain. I would assume dealer demos would come with full warranty.
What's up with Vinnie Rossi L2i SE?
A lot of them (particularly given how few units were manufactured) are popping up on the used market at a significant discount. I was told he's discontinued them and his new lines will start at $30k and up.
