My very good friend John Wiesner (of Loesch & Wiesner fame; see
http://www.tempoelectric.com/preamp.htm) is offering a few of his custom, hand made products for sale. Before he posts on Ebay, I suggested that I offer them on the AudioCircle website.
I have two pairs of John?s SET amps (2A3 & 300B) as well as his preamp used on my Klipschorn & Tannoy systems. My brother in-law also has John?s amps & preamps on his Klipsch Cornwall-based system. After having numerous hi-end amp/preamp combos in my system, John?s equipment sounded best to me (as well as to my audio club friends). Also, I?m very finicky about tube amp-preamp noise. John?s designs & craftsmanship produce zero noise at idle.
The items are brand new with several hours of ?break-in? time. All are point to point wiring (no circuit boards) and are the epitome of craftsmanship.
Prices are negotiable with John.
