Here's a super-clean, one owner Klimo Merlin preamp (with MM phono) and a Klimo Ergo step-up for MC cartridge.
Telefunken ECC 88 and ECC 808 tubes in the Merlin. AEG ECC88 tubes in the Ergo.
Very nice condition. There is the slightest corrosion on the brass-plated, screw-down knobs that hold the glass plate in place on the Merlin. The Ergo had a European plug and adaptor at the end of the power cord, which I replaced with a Hubbel hospital-grade plug.
Slight hum with the Ergo. Never bothered me enough to fuss with it to see if it was the tubes or a ground-loop thing.
The RCA connections on the Merlin are delicate and you should not twist in your interconnects. Just push them in straight and you'll be fine. (I read this same thing in an online review. Perhaps 6 moons?)
This is an excellent sounding preamp and step-up. I've been using it with a Well Tempered turntable with a Blue Oasis cartridge, a Marantz 8b (and other amps) and Altec Mastering Labs Big Red Monitors, Come buy for a listen when you pick up the Klimos.
I take pride in how well I pack delicate audio grea for shipment all over the world. Only packing complaint I've ever gotten is from someone who mentioned that it took too long to unpack a turntable I'd sent to HongKong.
Paypal users are responsible for the fees. Why not just send a check or money order and save some money.
Please check my feedback here and on all the audio sites under the username, Kolledog. I always tell it like it is, and I never sell junk.
Thank you.
