FS: Ayre P-5xe Phono Stage

So here's the next thing from my cupboard: a beautiful and rarely seen Ayre P-5xe phono stage.

This phono stage is known for its inky black noise floor and natural yet dynamic delivery. It is unusual in being one of the few phono stages around that have balanced inputs as well as outputs - it has unbalanced ins and outs too if that's what you need.

This comes with the original box and a photocopied manual, but no power lead. There are a few small scratches around the back (shown in pictures below) from plugging in cables without pulling the unit out of the rack (lazy, I know!). Also, the "t" from "evolution" is missing on the front.

Price: £1000 including delivery from Portugal (where I live) to anywhere in the EU.

Specs:

Gain
50dB, 60dB, 70dB to balanced outputs
44dB, 54dB, 64dB to single-ended outputs

Input impedance
47 kohm, 1000 ohm, 100 ohm

Frequency response
RIAA curve accurate to +/- 0.05dB
