SOLD! Don Sachs SP14 Custom Line Stage Preamp
« on: 29 Aug 2017, 01:01 pm »
I have thoroughly enjoyed Don’s SP14 pre amp and regard as one of the best preamp's I’ve ever owned.
 I’m in the process of downsizing my system and want to go in another direction.
 This one comes with Jupiter 1uF copper output caps, 64 step Khozmo remote, a
quad of the Shunguang Treasure CV181 Z tubes, balanced inputs, and walnut case.
I have just under $2500 into it. Asking $1800.   
The Shunguang Treasure CV181's have about 300 hours of operation and the rectifier tubes are new.
 Apologies for the marginal quality of the photo.

Hi,
I am the one who picked this unit today  So I don't have to wait 10 weeks talked to Don today will probably send it to him when I receive it for upgrades he has suggested.

I saw the post early this morning and thought if I hadn't ordered mine but being that you have this one, my wait time will probably decrease now :)
Let me know what you think of it and what upgrades were suggested since the unit appears to be new ?

Thanks Burt
Expect it to  come this Thursday, the 7Th you are welcome to come and listen to it any time ! will let you know how it sound in a couple of weeks I may send it to Don to upgrade the caps and wiring to bring it to Don's current thinking and standard. Good news is it has 1Uf Jupiter caps which are very expensive now about $ 200 a pair which will be left in the unit but an extra set of 3 uf pair film & foil caps by passed by Teflon will be installed along with Dueland wiring on 2 inputs, plus full board run,  and 1 input will have Neotech gold/silver wiring
