The SP-T100 is a serious, long-established hybrid monoblock, but GBP 996 is difficult to call a bargain without knowing whether that means one amplifier or a matched pair. New examples have sold around GBP 2,000-plus per unit, so GBP 996 for one clean, tested amplifier is broadly fair; for a pair, it would be an excellent buy.
Its appeal is the blend of valve input-stage colour with robust solid-state output: 100W into 8 ohms, 200W into 4, and the first 10W in Class A. They have substantial transformers, drive demanding speakers confidently, and produce a large, muscular sound with pleasing vocal warmth. At this age, confirm the listing includes the correct valves, that both channels are quiet after warm-up, and that the mains version is suitable for the UK. Original packaging and a matched pair add meaningful value.
