PeachtreeAudio decco 2. This is a great amplifier, with a very good DAC. Very good as an integrated amp, I felt the power amp section was the limiting factor, so I used it mostly as a preamp into my Quad 306. I now have a DAC with a volume control which I use into the Quad.
40W/ch integrated amp, hence the sale.
Hybrid tube preamp - the tube glows blue when activated. I changed the supplied tube for a 6H23N-EB. The original tube didn't seem to make much difference, the replacement does introduce some warmth to the sound. Original tube also included.
2 aux inputs, USB, optical and coax digital inputs, pre out, headphone amp.
The remote control is has some sort of rubberised coating which has become a bit sticky over the years, but the remote is functional.
Manual (https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0401/9490/0118/files/Decco2_Manual.pdf?v=1591690336), power cord and original double box packaging.
It's heavy (15Kg boxed) hence £380 including fully insured UK delivery. Payment by PayPal friends and family or bank transfer please.

Best thing for the sticky bits is a paste made from bicarbonate of soda. Rub into the rubber until smooth and non sticky.

I've owned one for coming on 10 years now. Awesome amp for the money. As some reviewer once said its functions rank the following way: DAC>Preamp>Amp
Bonus slot for a sonos unit in the back, will save you space.
Like you I used it to feed a valve power amp, did wonders.

Thanks Olivier, it's incredible VFM. The unit I'm selling doesn't have the slot for Sonos, but it was a near idea :)
