WTD: Audio Innovation L1 preamp

[Open Door]

As per title, looking for one of these or something very similar if such exists.
There is one on eBay but it is collection only and a bit far off.

Got an email from a friendly Wammer suggesting maybe something like the below. I did have my eye on it. Anyone know much about them?

Made in China but maybe worth a punt, I think it's one of those things you'd have to take a chance on?
But it could be OK, it won't be the finest but what do you expect at the price.

Its a great little pre amp. I used one for a while.

If you can stretch your budget a bit, I have a P2 that I will sell.

Its really great and a very big step up from the P1.

here is an old sale thread

Brian, the P2 is a phono stage, do you mean the L2.

[take5]

Chris, yes. My mistake.

I have a P2 and an L2.

I meant the L2 pre amp.

[chris@panteg]

Chris, yes. My mistake.

I have a P2 and an L2.

I meant the L2 pre amp.

That P2 is very nice indeed, just got back into valves myself with a Puresound 2a3.

If the OP can afford your L2, then it's a no brainer.

The first one looks nice, octal type valves with point to point wiring at a bargain price. I wonder if the valves are compatible with 6SN7/6SL7 types which would be nice.

Thanks for the comments.

Reason for the L1 or other eBay options is due to the small footprint - needing something small.
