For sale is a mint condition original ACT2 series 2 preamplifier. It just came back from conrad-johnson at the end of February 2014. After a complete system check, conrad-johnson replaced 5 off-spec transistors in the power supply. This linestage now operates at spec. You won't find a better ACT2 series 2. A quad of new conrad-johnson tubes is included, $240.00, along with the current c-j ones. The remote has some fading of the lettering from cleaning. The manual has been professionally printed in color from the c-j pdf file and bound with a transparent cover.
