Further information: bungled in as part of a deal this is pretty much brand new and unused. Opened to test and make sure all good. Photos:

Further information: less than 3 mths old. Best phono stage I have used in my journey by a mile!!! Photos:

Further information: This is the latest version and one of the first in the country. It is less then 2 months old. One thing I have learnt is that it doesn’t matter how good your arm TT or cartridge is, if you’re phono stage isn’t up to the task you are wasting money and forever chopping and changing. This was already a great phono stage but this version has a much more natural and warm presentation. It bested my valve phono stages by a considerable amount. It has XLR out too! I am actually really reluctant to sell this out of all the items I listed. It can get the most out of ANY cartridge hooked up to it. I have all boxes etc. https://sonicpurity.com.au/store/phono-stages/rcm-sensor-2-mkii Photos:

Further information: Hi, selling my almost new Phonomena II+. Just received it last 17th July 2020. I purchased it from Recordclean last June but was sent back because the left channel died for whatever reason. This is the replacement now. I just opened it to test for few hours to see it is working properly then put to box again. Shipping is available at agreed cost. Got some sample youtube video when it was on silver color.... and have another one I just added yesterday at Youtube for the black one. Obviously has not been burned-in yet which I am comparing with EAR 834P deluxe. Thanks.

Black model, all like new in original box with paperwork, power supply etc. Sorry pickup not available with lockdown so post is included in price Photos: PLEASE READ If you are advertising multiple items, you must post one bulk price only, or post seperate ads for each item If you include any reference to pricing whatsoever in this section (excluding RRP), your ad will not be approved If you don't include photographs of the actual item being sold, your ad will not be approved

Re-post - price is negotiable / offers welcome. Purchased new from local supplier just over 3 years ago. Still using stock tubes with total hour count of 1,625 hours over 3 years. Unit is in perfect working condition and is pristine in appearance. Unit is complete with manual, QC sheets, power cable, screw driver, remote control, and original box. Remote control has hardly been used at all. Also have a full set of spare tubes for the unit which are brand new – Sovtek 1 x 6550WE, and 4 x 6H30. Really loved this unit. Very good user interface. Impedance changing on the fly, auto shut off, display dimming, new/current ARC styling, solid metal remote control. Fixed gain of 55db. Have used with several cartridges with wonderful sounding results – including Benz Micro Wood S L (0.4mv) and EMT JSD P6.0 (1.05mv). Loading range 47k, 1000, 500, 200, 100 Ohms.

Further information: Selling my Manley Chinook in an excellent condition except a few light marks on the right hand side of the faceplate (see images). A superb sounding phono on its own and very versatile. The SQ can be brought even further high up by using a Shelter 4II Type II SUT with a low output MC cart. I have tried a few mc carts to great effect which includes Denon 103R, Rega Apheta, Shelter 7000, Lyra Delos and Allnic Verito Z. Its also great if you like to try tube rolling and the NOS Amperex 7308 are usually highly recommended. There are a lot of great info and reviews you can find online - all very interesting for experiment if you like to spent your money! The Shelter 411 Type II SUT, Siltech Classic Anniversary phono cables and the Manley Chinook are a superb package that you simply must hear. The current retail price is $4495. This is a local unit with input 220-240 VAC. Comes with 4x Electro Harmonics 6922 stock tubes. I have the original box so can post at buyer's expense.

Further information: This fantastic preamp is a game changer. So much bang for your buck here! Sounds amazing and will perform well above its small price tag!! This is in Excellent condition. Almost brand new with no marks or faults. Sad to see this one go but I’ve bought a Moon Preamp and no longer need this little beauty. Purchased from Adicted to Audio. RRP: $340. Photos:

Further information: Price is negotiable!!! Jasmine LP 2.0 Mk2, which was the upgraded and improved model from the justly famous Jasmine 2.0 SE. Build quality and sound quality are just astonishing for the price! Note that you would need to pay about 4 times what I am asking to get the current solid state model. This unit has been further enhanced with some replacement audiophile-quality components in the power supply including teflon-coated solid core silver wiring, Philips Vishay 63V caps, etc, soldered using top quality Cardas high-silver-content solder. Modifications were made by TTW, then member of stereo.net.au forums, who is a certified Australian electrical engineer. While the performance is truly amazing for the price, you could further improve it with replacement components in the MM stage, if you wanted. I note that one of these has just sold on US Ebay for about AU$680 plus shipping. Package weight is a little below 8kg. This is not a lightweight phono preamp in any way. [Current models are the Jasmine LP 3.0 Mk1 (about AU$1600 + shipping from China + taxes), and the all-tube Jasmine LP 4.0 (about AU$3500 + shipping + taxes)] ELECTRICAL DISCLAIMER This product has not been manufactured by a qualified individual or company, therefore contains electrical circuits that do not necessarily comply with Australian Standards.

Item: Location: Perth 6036 (Far Northern 'burbs) Price: $4000 Item Condition: 9/10 Reason for selling: NLR see below Payment Method: PayID preferred (reliable, instantaneous, traceable and no fees, check with your bank) will also take Cash on collection, bank transfer and Paypal at buyers expense for fees Extra Info: Selling my beautiful Moon 340i. Only selling as I am moving towards a DSP based setup and recently purchased a DEQX pre-amp. This means that the exceptional internal pre-amp, DAC and balanced diferential circuitry are all being bypassed at the moment and being wasted. I'd rather let the amp go to someone who needs a top quality integrated solution and free up the cash for a dedicated power amp with a 12v trigger IN that works with the DEQX and reduces the possibility of my wife blowing up my speakers!! This is the D2px version in Black, the same version that retails at $10000 with the truly excellent phono stage but with the previous d2 onboard DAC (still excellent but not as good as the d3). I am the second owner from new and the amp is truly in excellent condition with no visible marks, dents or scratches of any kind as far as I can tell. It will be shipped in the original packaging (single box only) and will contain the power cord, manual and remote control. I've honestly never owned a finer amplifier, but I'm potentially going to replace with another used Moon power amp anyway. If you are reading this, you probably aware of who Moon are so I won't bore you with my description of how it sounds (so goood....) as there is plenty out there on the web but I have included a couple of useful links below including manual, review, current aussie retailer price etc https://www.stereophile.com/content/moon-simaudio-neo-340i-integrated-amplifier https://simaudio.com/en/product/340i-x-integrated-amplifier/?v=6cc98ba2045f https://simaudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/340i-X_Manual_EN.pdf?v=6cc98ba2045f https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/products/simaudio-moon-neo-340i-integrated-amplifier-with-dsd-dac-phono-stage Price is $4000 including insured delivery to anywhere in Mainland Aus, donation to SNA and paypal fees if appropriate. happy to discuss shipping further afield or reasonable price reduction if collecting from mine in Perth, cash etc. I'm posting this from work so I will add more and better quality photos later on. Pic of Pooch (his name is Chief) for attention only . Pooch not included with amplifier.... and because, well why not!! Photos: Advertisements without photos of the actual item will not be approved.

Item: Valab LCR-1 Mk2 phono stage Location: Brisbane Price: $700 (A new LCR-1 costs over $1,300) Item Condition: As new Reason for selling: Buying a new DAC and getting a matching phono stage from Abbas Audio in the Ukraine. Upgrades. Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal Extra Info: Local pickup only. I will not entertain posting anywhere so only queries for local pickup, or I can drop the phono stage to a Pack & Send if you've an account. The best sounding phono stage I've been lucky enough to run. This stage is completely transparent and sounds as though it's not even in the sound chain. Not sure if you can ask for better than that, and certainly there's nothing better available at this price point. The LCR-1 is known to compete with phono stages many times its retail price. From all reports the Mk2 is better sounding than the Mk3 though I can't imagine it would be a large difference. You can read a review of this wonderful phono stage here: http://www.troelsgravesen.dk/LCR-RIAA-shootout.htm Photos:
