Miyajima Labs EC-5 Preamp for vinyl lovers! Excellent condition

Miyajima Labs EC-5 preamplifier in excellent condition. Purchased as a dealer demo unit, still looks and performs as new. This is a wonderful design and build by a highly regarded creator of cartridges, preamps and amps that are analog world class. It offers three phono inputs along with uncommon flexibility to fine tune cartridge and LP performance:

• Modern and vintage RIAA curves
• MM-only, so an external step up transformer (SUT) is required for MC cartridges
• Unique impedance termination options you use with your SUT (see third picture) to find the best sounding on the fly. Best of both worlds -- use of an SUT combined with optimal loading
• Variable output to optimally match its gain/output to your amplifier

These features allow you to really dial in and optimize the entire analog input and output chain. And the sound is as you'd imagine from a pure tube, Japanese artisan preamp.

I'm a 95% vinyl listener and love this preamp, but I happened upon an integrated that matches with my speakers better than the many amps I've tried. So I'm now moving to a phono stage.

Thanks for your interest!
