Audio Research PH5 Phono Preamplifier Silver

Fabulous sounding phono preamplifier. Purchased 9 months ago on audiogon, so I am not the original owner. Tubes have approximately 300 hrs based on the information I had when I purchased it. I am rating it 7/10 because it is used but it is in excellent condition. This replaced a Linn Linto and was really much better sounding to my tastes than the Linn. Selling due to a total system downsizing effort. Please see my other listings. I have the original box, remote, tubes, tube dampeners, manual, and screwdriver. Of note, the unit currently does not have the black handles attached as the previous owner preferred this look. I have the handles and hardware to attach but never bothered. They will be shipped with the unit. I am pricing this aggressively since i am not the original owner. I will pay for shipping at my asking price but the buyer will need to pay 3% paypal fees if they choose to pay by that method.
