Excellent linestage with five 2-channel inputs and one 6-channel input. Outputs are main L-R, a tape loop and a 6 channel pre-out. The nicest thing about the Pre-5 is that it is all analog, there is no digital circuitry to muck up the sound. This a great linestage for 2 channel music and if you have a BDP/DVD player with 5.1 analog outputs it can also be used for MC music and HT.
I am the second owner and am only selling because I was forced to down-size my system. It needs to go, the Sherbourn amp it drove has already been sold and it's just sitting in a box now. The unit functions perfectly and is in very good condition, 8/10 on the Audiogon scale, mainly for age. There are a few very minor scuffs on the top, but they don't even show up in the photos.
If you weren't aware, Audio Refinement is the 'budget' line from the French high end audio company, YBA. AR components are designed by YBA in France, but are built in Taiwan to to keep costs down.
I'm asking $400 + shipping. Price includes double boxing the optional remote and the OBM. PayPal is my preferred form of payment and the fee is included in the price. This is a 110V model, so North American sales only.
