Factory built (serial number label is on the bottom) Django+ AVC units such as this rarely come up for sale. I've used this with solid state, single ended and push pull tube amps and it's out performed every preamp, active or passive. This will not disappoint.

* 5 Pair of RCA inputs * Selector control extension places switch close to the inputs * Switch to make/break input-output ground bus for hum and ground loop control * Silk SQ supermalloy AVC 28 step with high purity copper and teflon leadouts * Non-magnetic chassis * Silver solder * TVC Iso Mount blocks * Seiden selector and premium 28 position volume control, switches are Miyama toggles from Japan * Includes standard RCA jacks

The Silk AVC used in this unit has 10 DB more attenuation with 28 steps than Djangos of the past. The Django+ AVC has all the advantages of a supermalloy inductive volume control. High inductance, excellent bass slam, transparency, detail, presence etc. The Django+ AVC also uses a very special totally nonmagnetic copper brass and gold switch from Seiden Japan.

DIY Hi-Fi no longer makes this particular type of Django+, as 'The Silk company' no longer supplies their transformers and autoformers to outside companies.

It is in excellent condition, but it does have more than a couple light marks on the grained stainless steel top.

DIY-Hifi still makes a Django, though their current offering is selling for around $1500 in the form closest to this one. There are 5 inputs and 2 outputs. The +6dB swith does not operate with the AVC - that is a TVC thing. The XLR-intended inputs and outputs were instead built as additional RCA inputs and outputs. True balanced means a second set of autoformers and a lot more wires.

The original owner made some modifications that are listed below:

- Added Deflex to interior - top, sides, bottom and around autoformers - Replaced wire from input switch to volume switch, and from volume switch to outputs - Wire is Clairvoyant Cable: 6N 99.9999% OCC Solid Copper (.50 microns of 24K Gold Plating coated w/ a clear enamel insulation) My feedback as a seller on ebay is 100% positive (albiscuit) so you can be confident there won't be any surprises of the bad kind...

The unit will be shipped double boxed for $25 via FedEx Ground with signature confirmation, ConUS only, I'll cover PayPal. Please ask any and all questions and thanks for looking.
