Hi I’m usually over at LH but wanted to enlarge the audience. I first heard, read about Alan’s phono preamp here. After much badgering Alan was kind enough to finalize (he’s now waiting for the circuit boards iirc) his OTP3 prototype for me. As I never heard one before, but have heard and owned my fare share over the past 50+ hobby years, I say, “hats off to Alan!”

The groove and swing, simple but somehow ‘pure’ musicality, the enrapturing to discover that the LP is over and last not least the bass, “to die for!,” is scary close to as good as I know. Absolutely sensational at even 5x this price, imho.

220-24V AC.

Like new (disregarding re-solder trial-and-error joints)

Unit is in Essen, Germany.

150£ net, 175€ net and will post worldwide at cost, 16€ to GB, 10€ Germany

PS: unsure how to post photos but if I have your email or WhatsApp will send immediately

I have deleted the final image showing your contact details.

Ian, can you edit the final image and resubmit?

I don't think the last image added much to the listing so best to just leave it off. Alan, I've also removed it from the LH listing.
