Exceptional component, no introductions needed. Mint condition, probably a 9, but I'm conservative with ratings. When I acquired the preamp, I also purchased two additional pairs of Amperex 8416's and an additional set of six (6) 12AX7's for the phono stage directly from VAC. I will include them at my asking price.

Serious inquiries only. Price is fair and firm.
Thanks for looking.

Questions for the seller
Hello, Does does this have 2 MC phono or MC1 MM? Also does it have the switch to use tubes other than the 8416? On the power supply , is it the one with 2 circle dials or the square center one with the VAC logo? Thank you -
MC/MM. The preamp was produced in June of 2010. The power supply has the illuminated VAC logo (no meters). All of the current Sig's have a switch enabling the selection of either 8416 or 6922/e88cc/7308 tubes. The preamp shipped from VAC with with Golden Dragon e88cc's.
Are there balanced inputs and outputs! May I ask how many? Also, I believe this unit has the separate power supply, correct? Tks., Shane
5 RCA inputs - 2 of these are switchable (balanced or RCA) 1 phomo input (MC/MM) 2 main outs - RCA or balanced. Yes, the unit has ha separate power supply
Is there a remote? Shane
Yes
Your price is very fair for this superb pre amp and I am surprised no one has grabbed it! I replaced my Audio Research Ref 5 with this pre amp and the improvement was huge; made the Ref 5 sound so flat! I used the Amperex 8416 I had hanging around and it move up sonically another couple notches! Too bad audiophiles are persuaded by advertising and not their ears!
Thanks Mark - from the responses I've received it seems to be priced right. A few low-ball offers, but that's to be expected. I have contingent offers pending sale of existing components, so we'll see. btw, I agree with your comment about the 8416. I bought an extra two pairs after A/B'ing with the Golden Dragons.
