Up for sale is the magnificent Purity Audio Design Silver Statement Pre-amplifier in a custom 3/4" solid maple hardwood + acrylic enclosure.  This is a top level pre-amp that comes in a 2 chassis configuration (control box and power supply).  Uses a pair of 12AU7 tubes (and comes with some vintage RCA tubes).  Comes with a very solid and nice remote control.

The condition on the control box is very good on the face and on the acrylic. There a few small marks/chips on the wood on top.  The power supply has a few scratches on top from the control box sitting on top.  it looks like the bottom wooden strip on the power supply may have been reattached...it is very solid now.

Here is a testimonial from the original owner...

My preamp arrived today.  All I can say is Wow!!  I am extremely overwhelmed and extremely grateful.  For the first time in my audiophile life, and especially since I became a reviewer, I was made to feel special.  This is way, way, more than I was expecting and even surpassed what I imagined could have been possible.  I know I jokingly mentioned to Bill that I wanted my preamp to be special because it would have stand up to some strong scrutiny and be used in some pretty high quality reviews, but I had no idea what you guys had in mind.

First of all, I really thought I would have a nicer performing “Statement” and am still shocked that mine says “Silver Statement” on the front.  And yes, though I know it needs to break-in, I do hear differences, or should I say, increases in performance from the Reference to my Silver Statement.  I looked inside and just drooled.  I 


need to wear a bib when I look inside of my preamplifier.  Note I keep saying “my preamplifier” as I am so proud of it.  The wood accents are just truly marvelous, making mine the most beautiful “Silver Statement”, make that most beautiful preamplifier, on the entire planet. 

I am still in shock and awe.  I don’t even want to work this afternoon.  I’ve already put myself in “busy” mode on my Instant Messenger, twice, for 45 minutes, and gone to my listening room to enjoy music.  I need to take pictures.  I need to let the fella’s know that my preamplifier, my Silver Statement, is here so they can come and bask in its glow and hear how music is supposed to sound.  My head is spinning right now and I’m floating on Cloud 9.  Again, I want to thank you guys so much.  You should be proud to know you made a grown man cry today."
