FOR SALE: Mitchell Cotter MK-2 Step-Up Transformer (set to value P, 2 to 30 ohms)
New Price is $775. (One sold on ebay in Dec for $940.)
One owner since new, good cosmetic condition . This unit has never been modified. Original silver output wires. Serial # T2-917-911.
This unit has been given a thorough listening test on a friend's Luxman system and it works perfectly.
The MK-2 has load impedance jumpers inside, making possible for the user to set its "impedance range" configuration as l, p, s or pp type for optimal cartridge matching. This unit comes in its original "factory setting" as type P. I do not have the connection diagram, but they are available. With proper soldering skills you buyer can change the configuration.
These units are relatively rare. Review on Vinyl Engine.
