Hello Philip,
Please can you go to the Welcome area and introduce yourself, and tell us a little about yourself, your tastes in music and your audio system.
When you have done that and made four additional posts, you will be able to send and receive PMs, so if any Member here can help you with your enquiry they will be able contact you.
good to have you , i am sure you have already looked at definative site but they do have a mactone pre

Thank you for letting me know Phil. I am hoping to buy privately so that it's cheaper than from dealers.
possibly but not always and you don`t get the back up you would from a dealer should things go wrong . kevin has some lovely stuff
Especially when it comes to Mactone. Have heard anecdotal reports of reliability problems. Also I think that one at Definitive has been sitting around literally for years. I tried to get a demo of it around two years ago before buying the EAR 912.
Also - addressed to the op - it seems an odd way to pick a pre. AN AN-M3 is an entirely different beast to a Shindo for example (frankly I’m not the biggest fan of either, but for very different reasons) I think you might be advised to have a listen around first.
FWIW I tried the AN M-3 with my AN Empress Silver Monoblocks, I didn’t get on with it in all honesty, felt that it bloated the sound too much in my system at the time, I ended up with the Hattor Passive Pre which for the money is a killer
one like this lee ?

not sure about price as this company on ebay [globalica ]tends to be expensive
did you import yours ?
Not quite in the same realms as the list above, I have an EAR 802 pre which is available. It has been in my system for many years and has partnered various power amps. I see you have 300B Audion Silver Knight monoblocs from your intro post. I used to own a pair and ran them with the EAR to good effect. It most recently partnered a Border Patrol 300BSE.
Let me know if you want more info.
