I am selling my wonderful Esoteric P-70 transport that has been modified with the full Reference Audio modded Ultra-Link III clock and power supply. The P-70 just came back from service and had the spindle drive replaced, was cleaned and had the contacts in the remote overhauled. All working perfectly and is rated 8 only because of age.

Mark Mickelson concluded his 2003 review of the P-70/D-70 combo by saying: "If you are lucky enough to spend some time with the Esoteric P-70 and D-70, you will be impressed. These ne plus ultra audio components were obviously designed without compromise, and their sound proves this as readily as their design brief does. They offer stunning retrieval of detail, grand dynamic contrasts, edge-of-the-art bass, and the sort of silent background for which only the best power conditioners get credit. As for their price, keep in mind that the D-70 allows you to ditch your preamp, which may save you the cost of both DAC and transport given the prices of the very best preamps on the market today. There is also, I suspect, a high level of pride that comes with owning the P-70 and D-70 -- they might represent the last attempt, and the best attempt, at building the ultimate CD player.

Just as it's difficult to describe extreme weather conditions to anyone who hasn't experienced them, it's hard to convey fully the sound of the Esoteric P-70 and D-70 -- even to those who have heard some of the best-sounding digital gear extant. Luckily, we here at SoundStage! have an easy out -- naming a component a Reviewers' Choice, an honor that the P-70 and D-70 have down cold."

Anyone interested in also purchasing my Audio Logic 24 MXL DAC, please let me know. I bought the Audio Logic directly from Jerry Osment and had it also modified by RAM complement the P-70. The Audio Logic bypasses the tube output stage, but that can easily be converted back. I have connected both units with a Stealth Sextet interconnect, which I will also sell if you are interested. I will not sell the Audio Logic by itself. 
Please let me know if you have questions. Shipping extra and please add 3% if using paypal. Thanks for looking at my ad.

Questions for the seller
Hello, This message is just to remind you that I am interested only in the Audiocom clock and power supply you have had installed in this P-70. If you finaly decided to separate it, i am still interested. Thank you in advance, Best regards, Henri Blanc ( France )
Hi, Thanks again. I am happy to sell you the clock and power supply for $2500 and throw the transport in. In other words, I am not interested in parting out my player. Thanks.
