Line 2A SE Line Preamplifier in maroon with oak rails.  Condition: 8/10.  No marks of any kind (pardon the dust in the photos).  Only blemish is that the shielding on one end of the power connector has moved away very slightly from the connector (common occurrence for this).  Shielding just needs to be reseated which is a quick task if you have one of those tiny screwdrivers (I don't).  No impact to performance/sound however.

Great (and I do mean great) sounding pre-amp at this price.  I don't know of any equals.

Price: SOLD

All-NOS tube complement: (to be filled out in more detail soon)

Some nice NOS tubes come with this pre-amp
1 pair - 12SN7-GT (Hitachi)
1 pair - 12SN7-GT (Philco)
2 - 6X5GT/G (Sylvania - U.S Navy)

Please PM me if interested.  Will be double-boxed and packed for shipment.

Thanks, -dB

bump for a great amp and AC member.

Bump for price reduction and update on accompanying NOS tubes.

hey, I can offer $325. That is high as I can go.

[rajacat]

Don't give it away! $325 is an insult for this good of preamp. I used to have one. Just wait awhile and you'll get a fair price.

Roy, why did you sell yours? I know this is a great pre. My beloved aunt just died...and left me 75 bucks. I will pay 400, so as not to disgrace this forum. But that is my final offer. 

[Aion]

p.s. dburna,

I honestly will not go more, it is too close to the price of just buying a new one from Dr. Lloyd, for me. I know you are offering a great unit at a fair price.

[dburna]

Sold!!...to a long-time (and upstanding) AC member.

Thanks for all your inquiries.

Damn, everytime one of these comes up I hesitate and miss it! I like my Tempest pre, but I'd love to try one of these.

I'm with you Joe, I have also been wanting to hear one of these, the only thing holding me back is that I really want a remote on my next unit.

Best,
Ed

Ed, we still have to have the Ohio River GTG. I'm waiting on the baffles for the H frame OB. Once I get those assembled, I should be good to go.

Way off this topic.....but I suppose it's dead now anyway!

I agree Joe.  I have a pair of V-1s in the works as well as one of the 120 watt classD amps.
