SOLD TO DANGER BOY

Most of you know this unit, and some may not...
In my opinion, for the $$, it is a great little Pre Amp...

I had offered this up to a member a short while back, and will still wait to see if he still wants dibs before I finalize any transactions, but in all fairness, I am going to post it properly..
I have , and will, pm him again...after a fair amount of time, they will be up for grabs...

This is the skinny from the Parasound website;

She has a couple of scratches on the top cover, but it`s not too noticeable in regular light...I tried to get it in the pic as best as I could...
She`s not a show piece, but she`s very acceptable...(non-fugly) ;)

...no scratches in the faceplate..
a couple small nicks on the top edge above the dial...hardly noticeable (last pic)

I give it a low 8/10 just because of age and scratch/small nicks

Direct Coupled Output
100% class A circuitry
Phono
Tape Record/Play
Defeatable bass / treble
Balance control
Headphone out
Non-Rackmount Faceplate (no holes)

For the $$, it`s hard to beat...a solid unit
Replace the stock power cord with a better one and your golden !

I do not have original packaging or manual...no remote...
I will pack it to withstand a trip by UPS......boob-proof

I`m asking SOLD
Paypal (2%), or MO /

I used this one for awhile before I got into tubes, and it has been my back-up unit for a while now, and I no longer need it....She will help fund the MIT journey !

If interested, please post here in this thread , then shoot me an e-mail, or PM

    I think DangerBoy might be interested in this. He's got a thread here mentioning that he's looking for a preamp.

    I emailed him w/a link to this page so he might contact you.

    Good luck w/the sale.

    Robert hooked me up with this very nice sounding and looking Parasound pre amp. Hooked her up tonight, and she sounds really very good. It brought a whole new level to my SDA's.

    thanks Robert for hooking me up with this nice pre amp.
