CANARY AUDIO CA-200 PASSIVE PREAMP - $375

I am continuing to clean out some equipment, so I have this highly-regarded passive preamp for sale.

From the Canary Audio site:

The CA-200 passive preamp can be used as a substitute of complex active preamplifier in many systems, and can serve as complete preamp solutions for audiophile purists. It is an easy and inexpensive way to reach high-end sound quality.  The CA-200 is compatible with most any component with line level outputs, like CD player, tuner, tape recorder, etc, and with most power amplifiers, tube or solid state.

Features and Specifications:

Totally passive design with zero distortion.
Swiss made ELMA rotary switch is used as input selector for multiple signal sources.
High quality Alps potentiometer is used for precise volume adjustment.
Point to point hand wiring with Teflon coated silver wires.
Five stereo line level RCA inputs (five pairs of L and R inputs).
Two stereo RCA output to power amplifier (two pairs of L and R outputs)
Thick steel chassis with beautiful black powder coating finish.
Heavy duty CNC milled aluminum faceplate and knobs.
Dimensions: 9.5" W x 9" D x 3.75" H
Weight: 12 lbs.

Current MSRP on this is around $895. 

The faceplate is a gold color such as shown on the Canary Audio website.  This unit would easily grade an 8 (more like a 9) on the Audiogon grading scale. 

Comes with original box and warranty card.

I can provide additional pictures or info on request.   

GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Please note that this unit speakers is being sold ‘AS IS’.

The unit is available for local demo.

Cash is always welcome.  Payment can also be via money order/cashier’s check/personal check preferred but, except for US Postal Money Orders, all must clear my bank first. 

I also accept Paypal for convenience (add 3% to for USA, and 4% for Canada).  IF YOU PAY VIA PAYPAL, HOWEVER, A CONDITION OF YOUR PAYMENT IS THAT YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO FILE A PAYPAL CLAIM OR CHARGE BACK (but do retain the right to sue me in court should you so desire).

I will consider shipping within the USA and Canada.  In any case, the buyer is responsible for all shipping charges.  I will double box, and shipping weight should be on the order of 20 lbs. In the USA, I would prefer to ship via FedEx ground.

Please check my feedback on Audiogon, Videogon and Ebay (ID=baileyler) and buy with confidence.

Bump.

Will consider some trade value, especially for things like the following tubes:

45, 46, 47, 5930/2A3W, 7591, 7591A, 6GM5, KT90, Siemens ECC801s, Mullard CV4024/M8162, 12AY7/6072/6072a, RCA cleartop 12AU7/12AU7A, plus others.

On the 45, 46, and 47, would be interested in ST or globe.  For globe, I am even interested in good-but-marginal-testing tubes as well.
