In last pic, under RCA connectors, there is some plugged hole and two smaller holes on both sides. Is it supposed to be like that?

Re: A 60
This amp is nearly 25 years old, I would not pay that much for it. The holes are fine, it was an alteration we did to earlier amps, so as I say this amp is from about 1990.

Re: A 60
Early NVA power amps had a DIN socket that provided power to the phono stage in the pre-amps, an external PSU was an optional upgrade. The covered hole looks to be where that socket would have been placed.
My A40 stereo amp still has the same DIN socket and I got the PSU to run my P80 preamp.

Re: A 60
^&^^ thanks for info, I'm not gonna buy it, holes made me suspicious. Wanted to know reason for the them.

Re: A 60
I don't know when it happened in NVA's history, but the amp boards are very different from the originals now and don't seem to have any temperament that I've noticed (the AP70 I finished off runs at a slightly higher voltage than the lower models but even then, there's huge headroom on the transistors and supply caps used).
