An impressive autoformer-based line stage. Balanced version. Remote version . Second owner. Leads to half volume step were not installed (sonic improvement), as discussed in reviews. Could be connected if wanted. Check out stellar reviews from: Stereophile , Dagogo, Positive Feedback, 6 Moons , and the Agon archives. The balanced version is rare to find on the used market and commands a premium over the RCA versions which come up for sale more frequently. The balanced version is a marked improvement over unbalanced version -- even when using unbalanced inputs/outputs. One set of unbalanced inputs is WBT -- see pics. Unbalanced (RCA) and balanced (XLR) inputs/outputs can be used simultaneously, so optimal flexibility.This preamp is amazing. (As suggested above, check out the online reviews.) Includes remote, walwort (not shown) and grounding plug (see pics). The condition is excellent. A solid 8 except for two small discolorations on the right side -- see pics -- hence I have rated this a 7. No PayPal charges. Shipping to verified PayPal addresses in the continental US. Lowball offers politely ignored. Here are the specs: Description: Autotransformer-based passive line stage. Inputs: 4 unbalanced (RCA), two balanced (XLR).
