    Default Nakamichi CA5 II

    WITHDRAWN FROM SALE - For the time being!

    Nakamichi Ca5 (nor ca-5 II as in title!) pre amp with mc/mm phono stage. Immaculate. I'm in Hove for collection, or can send for £20. Price - £300.
    I've only used it through phono stage, using tape out which was fine. Lovely condition, with original box/manual.
