    Default Heathkit UMC -1 Mono Pre Amp

    For Sale Heathkit UMC-1 Mono Pre Amp

    This I purchased as part of a set which I was assured was all working, unfortunately I don’t have the matching power amp so have been unable to test this Pre as it’s powered by a Bulgin connector (lead included)

    Should match perfectly with a Leak power amp.

    Condition is incredible for its age so asking a reasonable £50 plus postage

    uEYdigcIFk.jpgWow!! Ancient memories for me! My first exposure to hi-fi, circa 1960, when my father built a Heathkit stereo from a kit; Amp, Tuner, speakers , plus case with Garrard deck.
    Years later-1998? - i found a set of Heathkit (Westminster?) speakers that I put on top of my fridges in my cafe-cost 99p on t'Bay!
    You can just see them in the pic.
    Apologies for slight hi-jack, here! (-:

    David I use tinypic and it's a doddle, it even tells you which code to copy for forums so just paste that into the post when you edit it, you don't even need to use the insert image button.
