Gold Note PH-10 in silver: a most versatile phono stage!

For sale is a near-mint example of the Gold Note PH-10 phono stage. If you're not familiar with this piece, you owe it to yourself to read up on it.

The relatively small package accomodates two turntable inputs (and not just one for MC and the other for MM, as is the case with most other units), RCA and XLR outputs (ARC doesn't even offer that on their $10K Foundation PH9!!!!), 6 EQ curves, 9 load and 4 gain options, selectable via a TFF screen that is an absolute pleasure to use!

Sonically, it's absolutely neutral without being sterile. Will it beat a Pass Labs XP-17? Umm ... uh ... no, of course it won't/can't. But it sure comes close!

I've performed the update so that you can connect it to the PS-10 outboard power supply, should you want to take the phono stage to the next level.

The sole reason for the sale is shown in the last photo: being rather anal-retentive and obsessed with matching components, I recently acquired an ARC PH9 to go with the LS28. I wish I could keep the PH-10 but something has got to go!

Being sold with the original manual, the downloaded instructions for the upgrade (which, again, has already been successfully performed by me), power chord (never used), packing material and original shipping box.

Being sold for $999 and - as is my practice - that includes PayPal fees and FedEx Ground shipping to anywhere in the Lower-48. Shipping is restricted to the Continental United States - sorry but absolutely no exceptions. The unit will be double-boxed for shipping.
