    Default For Sale: Peachtree Audio decco2

    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, 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.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    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
