Never really expected to sell this as its been flawless but I am reducing the clutter in my system so we will see if it sells.
£100 with a nice tesla valve in. This valve is the best bar the Western electric 396.

The we valve I will sell separate but will include for an extra £20https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190505/1667bdf5221089753fd50a32413b1425.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190505/22e9b1d77b86605ad391af11bf56d548.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190505/325eceed8d6d1df6797c29083a6fd8fd.jpg


This has an solid state output and a Valve output; both can be used at same time.

it has the usual 3 digital in's plus 2 analogue ins as well. The headphone amp is also very good.
One of the sung stars of aos these. Hard to beat and this one is in good condition and all works.. Only issue is 2 screws I've misplaced on top. Not needed tho.

I have a few other nice valves other than the we and will include them

Mine isn’t going anywhere until I have £800 for another one I fancy.

Just buy it and put it up against your expensive DAC.

Worth it just for the experience. Crazy good for the outlay and the WE is cheap at £20 so get that too.

Just plugged mine into the Luxman M-800a and it is sounding fabulous. Way, way out of its price range.
