Wanted: 47 Labs Shigaraki transport

[montesquieu]

I've had the same Audio Note digital front end for five years now (mainly I guess because it's very good).

However I'm contemplating a shake-up, just for a change really (or at least a contrast).

I once had a 47 Labs Shigaraki transport and really rather liked it - so maybe out of nostalgia, I'm on the hunt for another.

They do seem very thin on the ground though. So anyone got one for sale, or any pointers to one, please let me know.


EDIT: scrub that .... on a hunch I changed out the existing rectifier and regulator valves for a Bendix 5852 and RCA ECL82 that I bought and never got round to fitting. I can't imagine moving this DAC on under any circumstances. And may as well keep the matching transport, whatever I do it sounds better than any streaming software or interface I try up against it.
