FS: Modwright Platinum Truth Sony 9100ES - SOLD

SOLD

Modwright Platinum Truth Sony 9100ES with the external tube rectified power supply. Original owner (two years). Just checked out at Modwright (from where it will be shipped) and fitted with a new optical block (laser) and heavy duty ribbon cable. This unit has Bybee filters on the Power Supply only, not on the analog outs, as I found that too many Bybees thin out the midrange. It has the Acoustic Zen PS umbilical and a new faceplate for the PS chassis.

This unit has also had the PS chassis hole enlarged by Modwright to allow for the use of GZ32/5V4s and GZ37/5U4s (but not the High Wycombe GZ37 as the hole - through miscommunication - was not made quite large enough for it although it could be done), as well as the (stock) GZ34/5AR4s.

I will include a lightly used Mullard GZ34/5AR4 (labelled GE, 1961 Blackburn code), a '60s NOS Mullard GZ32/CV593, and a '60s ANOS Blackplate RCA 5U4GB. The 5687 output tubes are either Tung Sol or Raytheon (I don't remember which and couldn't hear a difference between them anyway) and are about a 1000 hours old, leaving about another 2000 hours of life.

Rated an "8". Pics in my gallery: http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?action=gallery;area=browse;album=5525

New price was $4100. Asking $2250 OBO. SOLD

US Postal MO preferred. No paypal. Shipping included to the lower 48. I have an all positive rating of 330 on A'gon. under the same user name.
