Valvet P2c tube preamp with MM/MC phono - showroom demo in excellent condition

This unit is from the showroom and for 120V but can be converted to 240V. The tubes are new (we used a different set of tubes).

The Valvet P2c is handmade in Germany by Knut Cornils. It comes with remote, separate power supply, 5 inputs (3x line, 1x MC, 1x MM) and 3 outputs (2x RCA, 1x XLR).

The P2c comes with phono stage and uses a pure silver transformer for MC. Impedance is 100 Ohm for MC and 47kOhm with 100pF for MM.    

Input impedance for the three line level inputs (2x RCA, 1x XLR) is 50kOhm. 

The Valvet P2c uses 6 tubes, 2x ECC83 (12AX7), 2x ECC81 (12AT7) and 2x 6SN7. A paradise for tube-rolling.

This unit is black silk with red sides and a red illuminated V on the front. The two knobs are made from ebony wood.

Review of P2c in the German magazine "Image HiFi" by Roland Kraft:
"...well, your P2c, Knut, does not behave in a linear way because it plays in heaven, it poaches in a league in which, given the price, it actually has no business to be in. In this league proper five-figure sums (in Euros!) are not only the norm, they usually are law and represent the entry gate to exalted sound pleasures. To secretly sneak into this league and upset the established pecking order is actually quite cheeky. But to keep this a secret amongst the circle of your ‘initiated’ customers is simply mean. Well, bad luck there, Knut. I am going to sing it from the mountains – without going crazy with further descriptions of the beautiful sound – and simply declare: for this kind of money, this is sensational, no ifs or buts! And further evidence for what I have been saying for ages: tubes rule!"
