For sale is the excellent and very rare:
Parasound P/LD 1500 preamp
The P/LD 1500 pre is the immediate precursor to the P/LD 2000 pre. It is also a John Curl-designed preamp. The 1500 model is in between the P/LD 1100 and P/LD 2000. Unlike the better-known P/LD 2000 and P/LD 1100 preamps, there is not much information online about the P/LD 1500. But the few articles and reviews that are out there all praise it for its sound as well as its build. It is just a small step below the P/LD 2000, and many steps above the P/LD 1100, in both regards.
I bought this about 8 or 9 years ago from a PF member. It is in Very Good cosmetic condition and excellent working condition. It is a fantastic sounding preamp. I had this paired with my Parasound HCA 1500A power amp and it was a match made in audio heaven.
I am not good at posting pics on the forum but pics are available on request. Please provide an e-mail address in a pm and I will be glad to e-mail pics.
I would like to avoid shipping and am currently only offering this for local pickup in the Albany, NY, area. I may offer a shipping option in a few weeks if there is no interest otherwise.
$425 cash only
Local pick-up only in Albany, NY, area
Package deal #1:
Take this Parasound P/LD 1500 preamp and the Parasound HCA 1500A power amp which I am offering in another thread and take both for $780 (a savings of $45 over buying both items separately)
Package deal # 2
Take this Parasound P/LD 1500 preamp, along with the Parasound HCA 1500A power amp and the PSB Stratus tower speakers which I am offering in other threads, and take all 3 items...preamp, power amp, speakers...for only $950 (a savings of $60 over buying all 3 items separately). That is a pretty super system for not a lot of money in today's inflationary market!

I like this generation of Parasound gear. The D/AC DACs of this generation are pretty nice too, if you don't need to go ultra Hi-Res.
