FS: McCormack LD-2 line stage preamp (Near New)
« on: 3 Feb 2012, 11:34 pm »
Up for sale is a near new McCormack LD-2 line stage preamp.  This unit is less than a year old, and has been used very lightly.  It was intended for use in an HT setup when only two channel stereo reproduction was used.  Unit is rated 9 of ten cosmetically, looks as new.  All original packing, manual, and remote included.

There are 5 line level inputs: CD, VIDEO, TUNER, TAPE, & PH/AUX.  The unit sports an advanced Burr-Brown volume control, which increments in .5 db steps.  Also supports theater bypass mode when using a multi channel processor.  Unit is solidly built, with very high quality parts throughout.  Suppots two preamp out for biamp operation.

The original retail price of the unit is 2499.00.  Asking 899.00 shipped via paypal to lower 48. 

Pictures upon request.

Yep.  It's less than 100 ohms (from the owner's manual).
