WANTED - Perpetual Technologies P1a

[MotherSky]

I am looking for a Perpetual Technologies P1a upsampler - I really don't care one iota about cosmetic condition, neither do I require a power supply - I am willing purchase a complete P1a/P3a setup if the price is right, but I only actually need the P1a - I am willing to travel and pay cash - anywhere this side of the outer Hebrides considered - MH

P.S. Should you happen upon one for sale (other than Canuck Audio Mart - I have already attempted contact with that seller and haven't had a response) - I'd be really grateful if you could forward me the details - yrs, MH

Is this (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PERPETUAL-TECHNOLOGIES-P1A-P3A-AND-POWER-SUPPLY-/391746374040?hash=item5b35e74998:g:bQgAAOSwq7JT9KW B) what you're looking for?

[MotherSky]

Yes - thanks for bringing that to my attention - but given that I paid £900 for mine 14 years ago, and not all components are available if/when they stop working, £800 doesn't seem anything like a realistic price - I would start looking at more recent kit if I'm going to part with that sort of cash

indeed.. i tried to pick up one years ao and failed to find anything at a decent price.

There's one on PFM. Sellers name is nirvana11. More sensibly priced at 500 for the DAC, upsampler and monolithic PS.

Thanks very much for the pointer - I seem to remember that you used to run some of these yourself at one point - I am slightly beginning to question the wisdom of pursuing equipment that can no longer be serviced, but I shall join PFM and see what Mr Nirvana has to say for himself...

Indeed I did use the PT combo. I rate it very highly.

Now sorted - thank you Rob - so pleased to have everything up and running again - this has made me realise that I should start looking at more long term solutions though.....

Good news.
I eventually replaced my PT kit with a Metrum Hex which is a great DAC and has a good selection of alternative inputs.
