This is a late model Bent Noh Silver TVC passive pre-amp in excellent condition. Note this unit has the rare SILVER Stevens and Billington TX 102 MkIII output transformers - totally transparent, no AC nasties, no resistors, top of the line Stevens & Billington transformers. Not available anymore. Incredible sounding unit. In my opinion the silver sounds far better than the copper version. Purchased from John Chapman in 2007, I used this Bent Audio NOH Transformer preamp successfully in my systems for many years.
Selling for $1,495. The price includes shipping in CONUS and Paypal fees. I will ship insured with signature required. I have been buying and selling on Audiocircle and Audiogon (dmatt200) since 2008.
