Bill: Did you get what you needed regarding info on the amp. Those serial number records are long gone from my hand. However, my guess would be early 80's. Is it and LV-Series? I do have schems.
There have been several links to'the schematics' in past forum entries.

Derrell - You shipped #8550 to me in 1984 or 1985. It's still alive and well and said to tell you hello.

That was back when your cabinet maker got cut real badly on a piece of sheet metal. Remember, it took you a while to find someone to build and cover cabinets for all those amps you had on order.

Bill
I have two Evans first one Built in 1983 serial #8355-D FET500LV has JBL E130 4 ohm still works flawlessly.
Second one built in 1999 serial #991120A E200LV. This one came with an Eclipse 15" 4 ohm, but I changed it out to a 15" Black Widow 4 ohm. I prefer the black widow or JBL with the larger voice coils, but mainly the first two number tell you the year the amp was built. Evans are great amps.
