Parasound JC3+ (One Owner, 12 Mos Old, Light Use, Clean Unit)

Probably the cleanest JC3 for sale in the US at the moment that isn't new

Original owner, Purchased 12 mos ago, Very Light Use. If you are considering a new unit and thought - let me see what like-new units are available, this one is for you.
This unit was purchased in Dec 2019 from Weinhart Design (see ship slip), an authorized Parasound dealer. I incorporated it into my system and put maybe 40 hours on it in an effort to explore vinyl (wanted to start very good components). It was fantastic linked up to the VPI Classic 30th Anniversary edition (also for sale) that I ran with it. With the right source material it was capable of taking my system that next level above a very good digital set-up (Direct Stream to Line Magnetic to Devore 9's). In the end however I found that I'm too used to the convenience of streaming to get the most out of this excellent pre / turntable set up and decided to build out a secondary system where I'm spending a lot more time in the current environment instead.

This phono pre spent its entire time with me in a protected audio rack. No pets, no smoke, no dust. It will ship in its original box with its original manual packing material, velvet sock cover etc. I honestly think that its cleaner than a demo unit would be.
If you are unsure of what a JC3+ is, take a moment to read some of the reviews (link below to the JC3+ review collection at Parasound)

Stereophile Review Highlights "As with the JC 1 and 2, the construction quality of the Halo JC 3 is first-rate." "Like the Vendetta, the JC 3 wasn't merely quiet, or even really, really quiet-it was silent." "In every case the portrayal of the recorded acoustic was exquisitely detailed." "It's superb at both frequency extremes, and tonally it's as close to neutral as any component I've heard." "Highly recommended!" - Brian Damkroger

"As with John Curlís legendary Vendetta phono preamplifier, the Halo JC 3 was superbly quiet." "Looking back through this report, I seem to have used the word superb several times, and justifiably so: The Parasound Halo JC 3 measured performance is indeed superb." - John Atkinson

A very nice collection of great reviews available at the Parasound website (which Agon will not allow me to include the link .. google it, its an efficient place to read up on this fantastic unit)
