FS Luxman AD8000 base with 8030 MC step up transformer (SUT)

[anubisgrau]

A much sought after and super rare combo of LUXMAN AD8000 SUT base with 8030 low impedance (3 ohm), silver coil on toroidal core step up transformer. A flagship Luxman SUT from late 70s which provides an option for quick exchange of step up for different impedance pickups (you can find 8020 medium impedance SUT and simply plug it in instead of 8030) and superb sound.

This quality of production as well as SQ would cost arm and leg today if it would exist - bare Lundahl or Slagle MC SUTs costs thousands of Euros or $.

Yours for 525 UKP delivered. As a reference you have at the moment a AD8000 combo with 8020 and 8030 at Yahoo Japan for $1000 plus about 20% of auction and transaction costs plus undefinite costs of shipping from Japan and duties.

Pics of a real thing, apologies for dust...
