Demo Equipment Sale

*** update : most of the items are sold now. All sold items are marked accordingly. I will offer 10% discount on the remaining items if no shipping is required and you arrange a personal pick up ***


Hi!

I am in the process of changing my entire product line to a new chassis style as could already be seen in the last 10Y line stage and D3a phono stage builds and also the Compactron series of electronics. Since this means a lot of new demo equipment needs to be built, I want to clear out the current stuff. 



Most of the amps and preamps have need used for demo in my workshop and also on audio shows. Some are trade ins from customers who upgraded to higher level units.



All are in good condition but can have the occasional minor scuff mark. Nothing serious. Technically all units are in perfect condition and will be cleaned and thoroughly tested before they leave the house. All will be delivered with fresh tubes and come with full warranty. Some sets do not have matching colours in power supply and signal unit. No changes will be offered. No change of housing, mains voltage or other mods. All are set for 220-230V mains. Your chance to grab one of these at a bargain price. I will ship world wide. Please note that customs fees might be applicable if you live outside the EU. Personal pick up is possible too.



Starting with one of my hot sellers the D3a phono preamplifier with LCR EQ. More info here.

This is the partial silver version. Slight mismatch in tone in the two chassis.

*** SOLD ***



Next the 10Y line preamp, the perfect companion for the D3a phono. This unit has 5 inputs. 2 Direct via RCA only and 3 balanced through input transformers. These have both XLR and RCA jacks. The 3 sets of input transformers are configured for different additional gains over the 6dB base gain of the preamp (0, +6 and +12dB)

*** SOLD ***



Another 10Y line stage. Same inputs configuration as the one above. This one uses now out of production Tribute OPTVCs

*** SOLD ***



A pair of 300B monos. Ideal together with the 10Y line to create an All DHT set up. ER801A driver and ER300B output tubes. ER274B plus 2 6AX4 in the rectification of the PSU.

*** SOLD ***



Digital to Analog Converter. This is the first unit I built an was used in my workshop system and at audio shows. More info here.

*** SOLD ***



Another DAC, this time using silver output transformers.

*** SOLD ***



All silver 46 drive 46 single ended monos. More info here

*** SOLD ***



Something very special, a mono phono stage with adjustable EQ using LCR! Has been used at various audio shows. More info here. Some videos with the unit playing here.

Sale price: 8000,- EUR / set (export without VAT: 6700,-)



6J5 line stage. Single chassis. More info here

Sale price: 4500,- EUR (export without VAT: 3780,-)



D3a Preamplifier with line and phono. More info here. I never actually marketed this approach.

Here your chance to grab this at a bargain

*** SOLD ***



D3a high gain line stage, has a separate power supply (not shown). It is the line section of the D3a Preamplifier. Specialized unit if more gain is needed. has several transformer inputs set for different gains. Email me for more information

Sale price: 8000,- EUR (export without VAT: 6720,-)



6KN6 monos. More info here. I never really marketed these.

*** SOLD ***



Differential D3a phono. A monster of a phone stage. The same as this unit.

*** SOLD ***



Something very special. A fully differential all silver 10Y line stage. my personal unit. 3 inputs all set for different gains. My ultimate statement in terms of line pre-amplification.

*** SOLD ***



And lastly a D3a phono in the new chassis. This was the prototype of this phono in the new style. The metal work is not done by the same supplier who I am using now and is not of the same quality and precision. Before I disassemble the unit maybe someone wants to grab it.

*** SOLD ***

That's all I have to offer. Feel free to email me if you need more information or more detailed photos. I am open for reasonable offers especially if you buy more than one setor if you pick up personally and no shipping crates are needed. Listening before buying is possible at my place. If you live too far away to come for a listen, don't worry. I guarantee full satisfaction. If you do not like what you bought you can send it back within 2 weeks after receipt for a refund of the purchase price, less shipping cost.

Please help me to make room. Everything that does not sell within a month will be disassembled for parts reuse.

Best regards

Thomas

  1. Does it mean you won't make any of the old style chassis any more?
