Bought this from a super nice audiophile and it is practically new. Mint condition. No marks whatsoever. Factory box and remote. Not truly balanced on the XLR's until you get the tranny option. No power cord.

$3000 + nominal shipping cost $2900 , free CONUS ship or a meet up.

Ive been meaning to get clarification on that XLR out  as I have been considering this pre--- As it sits now there is no XLR connection whether its balanced or not -- There just seems to be some sort of plug in there now.

The XLR jacks are there for an input (not an output). If the factory installs the Lundahl transformers that input will become a fully balanced input. Otherwise the negative (cold) XLR line is grounded and a single ended signal can be applied to the positive (hot) input (see pic).

thanks for that.   yes,   input I meant.  looked at this pre so many times and still forgot. 
Being its actually singled ended then and if used in a source with true balanced XLR isn't that a bit tricky regarding pin configuration?

The balanced transformers take care of that, $300 option from LTA as BRM said. I used my balanced DAC output without issue, no transformers, but I am having them installed in mine.
