Up for sale is a lightly used beautiful Rogers PA-1A Phono Pre-amp in excellent condition – appprox. 1 yr old, I got it in July 2017 (original purchase date – February 2017). Rating 9 because I am second owner. Selling for a ARC Phono pre-amp – want to try different things – life’s too short.   

The PA-1A phono pre-amp is a class A designed amplifier that is extremely quiet, and produces a crisp, detailed soundstage. With the ZYX Universe II X (output @ 0.24 mV) cart, there was more than adequate gain for me (50-65 dB). I ran with 2-12AV7 (RCA), 2-12AX7 (NOS Mullard) and 2-6GH8 (Tungsram). The 12AV7 can be substituted with the 12AU7’s for less gain or 2-12AX7’s for additional gain – whatever your preference - great for tube rolling. It will be hard to find a phonostage of this caliber at this price – please click on the links for reviews:

Included in the asking price is ground shipping to CONUS (additional $ required for shipping to AK, HI and Canada) with signature required and the following fairly new premium NOS tubes bought from reputable dealers (~ $780 value):

Mfr/Type Price Purchase Date Approx Usage
Tungsram 6GH8 $87.00 7/20/2017 ~ 200 hrs
Cifte 12AU7 $176.00 8/24/2017 ~ 150 hrs
Gold Lion 12AX7 $99.00 8/24/2017 ~ 150 hrs
RCA 12AV7 $135.00 12/1/2017 ~ 50 hrs
Mullard 12AX7 $285.00 12/1/2017 ~ 50 hrs


The 12AX7 Mullard’s are genuine NOS (British) and etched with Mullard factory codes in the glass, even though they say Amperex. The Mullard’s work magnificently and produces a nice texture. The tubes have plenty of life – Roger says tubes should typically last 5,000-10,000 hrs. Comes with manual and Shunyata power cord. I will also include the tubes that came with the unit (2- 12AX7 JJ Gold Pins, 4-12AX7 The Tube Store), since I will have no use for them. The unit will be shipped in its original box, which is specifically designed for transport.
* proof of purchase for tubes will be provided upon request after sale.

Will take checks, m/o’s and ship when payment clears. Paypal fees included at asking price.

Pictures are of the actual unit. Please ask if you have any questions. Roger Gibboni (info@rogershighfidelity) is also a great source for answers – he’s very prompt in responding. The unit is built well with transferrable lifetime limited warranty. 
Priced to sell. Buy with confidence.  Will consider trade for a compatible DAC.
