Absolare Passion Preamp

Surprised this amazing piece is still available. Losing dedicated music room, and reluctantly up for sale is the very rare Passion preamp from Absolare, considered among the best tube preamps in the world.  Original version, with single ended configuration (designer's preference), purchased directly from Manufacturer . Their current version is being sold for $25000. Competes with  the best tube preamps in the world. In excellent condition.  Piano Black finish, and comes with removable MADAGASCAR EBONY casing (pictures show both ways) . Comes with the original flight case included (pictured).   I've been on A'gon for 20 years with 100% feedback.  Buy with confidence. If you are considering a premier tube preamp, nothing anywhere near this price can touch it.   Will include a pair of the manufacturer's favorite tubes      (Mullard 10M) at my  asking price.
  From Robert Hartley, Absolute Sound...

" The (Absolare) Passion amps and preamp are boutique products in the best sense of those words. Their sound is world-class. “Absolare’s approach is to assemble an international team of the best designers, find the highest-grade parts from vendors around the world, pursue absolute minimalism in the signal path, exploit synergies between components, wrap all this up in lavishly made and easy-to-use products, and provide a level of customer service commensurate with that of the world’s finest luxury brands.”
