    A worthy chase imho.....haven't heard it myself but most seem to love the snot out of them. I thought for sure you would go after the Mac pre in the FM.

    Nope, I have heard that mac before and with stock and rolled tubes, I like the 150 better. I only wanted to ask that question for the next potential buyer since the tubes have some age on them and the seller didn't say how old the tubes were or if they were stock.

    Marv on the Backert review thread is the one that got me interested in one. Believe it or not, when the 150 came up, there was Ultra 3 for sale at the same time. I chose the 150 but, I still want to get my ears on a U3.

    It looks like hes on board if I can find someone to pick it up, box it since he doesn't have the original boxes and ship it to me.

    I might call the company and see how much it would cost to get a proper box shipped out to the seller....

    DSkip, you normally give the most excellent advice, but I have a feeling that if that route is taken, it'll turn into a PFB saga. :)

    He got back to me today. With his lifestyle, he does not have the time to ship it out so he said a local pick up is fine.

    What kind of lifestyle is that?
