I'm not spending enough time listening to music to justify having such a posh system, so I'm going to sell most of it.
Firstly, this superb passive preamplifier. I do consider myself a bit of a passive pre connoisseur, as I've owned pretty much ever commercial model available under £2k. This is the best one I've owned, and I sold my previous winner, a Townshend allegri when this arrived. A ladder type transformer attenuator and so it impedance matches, it made the allegri sound sluggish and veiled and looks INCREDIBLE to boot, although there a small amount of wear to some of the numbering on the vol dial.
It has either rca or xlr input and outputs but they aren't switchable. I used it with a Manley skipjack switch box, but I'll include a simple qed switching box so that you'll have two rca options. I'm also happy to sell the Manley at £150 if the buyer is keen.
These LM units are very rare, and sell for big money (current advert of another unit attached to give an indication). I'm asking a for more sensible £750 firm plus delivery for this boxed example.
