This Modwright SWL 9.0 Anniversary Edition is an amazing tube preamp w/ optional adjustable phono stage installed + remote. Original owner, I used this exclusively paired with a Pass Labs X150 amp (11 kΩ input impedance) since day one and performance was stellar. Sound quality and build are top notch. Features- 4 sets of RCA inputs, one of which doubles as Home Theater Bypass 2 sets of RCA Main Outputs 1 set of RCA Tape Outputs Hybrid headphone amp: 1.5 Watts (25 ohm to 600 ohm load) Tube Complement: 5687 x2 (or equivalents 7044/6900/7119) MM/HOMC phono stage ($350 add-on) Technical Specs- Gain: 11dB Input Impedance: 30K Output Impedance: 800 ohms Frequency Response: 20Hz to 100Khz Max Output Signal: 20V Distortion: .03% THD Noise: -110dB Dimensions: 17W x 12D x 4.5H Weight: 28.5 lbs (35 lbs shipped) Easily a 9/10, but due to a technicality, it will have to be marked a 7/10 (USAM scale). Reason: The word 'Power', above the power button, has some slight imperfections (see photo). I purchased the unit brand new and it arrived this way. It's barely noticeable. CONUS shipping only. Will be double boxed for shipping. (37 lbs. packed, 23"x19"x12") Local pick-up in Las Vegas, 89147 is always welcome! Asking $2250 $1500 + shipping and any fees (cash, PayPal, Zelle) Lowest price you'll find, anywhere!

I'm looking for a Peach preamp. If you have one that's not in use, please let me know, thank you. Cory

Lowered the price to $1200 SHIPPED to lower 48

haha, thanks!

no thanks, looking for a single amp, I don't have much space.

Wow, that's a big slab! I do like labrodorite, I have a smaller polished piece on my mantle. The only trade I'd be interested in at this time is an Usher R1.5 power amp, or something similar.

Forte Audio Model 2 preamp, recapped and updated.

I decided to sell my Manley Lab Series Stereo 75+75 tube power amplifier. Nothing wrong with it, works great, been my daily driver for a good while now. 9/10 condition, I can't find any blemishes. I'll include the upgraded input and driver tubes, which are two pairs of Amperex 7062 (E180CC), they work in both positions. Specs - Vacuum Tubes: 4 x 6550A (Output), 2x 6414 (Driver), 2 x 12AT7 (Input) Output Power: 80 Watts (@ 1.5% THD, 5 ohm load) Frequency Response, +/- .5 dB: 10 Hz - 30 KHz S/N Ratio @ 75W: -80 dB Asking $1200 SHIPPED to lower 48 I haven't sold on here for a long time, since before the forum change, but I never had a bad transaction. I have great feedback on audiokarma and sell there mostly. I have perfect eBay feedback as well, username: emeraldshaman

I just realized that I forgot to show photos of my Cornwall's after I refinished them. Probably mentioned earlier, but these were painted black and really beat up by the previous owner. [+o(] They came out nice though...I ended up selling them to a local Klipsch collector. I have some detailed photos below, showing the process, which this thread helped me out a lot. Also, I finished them with hand rubbed tung oil. I thank you guys for the tips that helped take the guesswork out of the equation. Here's the links to the find / refinish album: http://imageshack.us/g/339/dsc044660.jpg/ And here's the final product, just before I sold them: http://imageshack.us/g/251/dsc04600gz.jpg/ I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed the project![] Cory

funny stuff...I actually saw someone do this a couple weeks ago! I sold some Sansui SP2500's & SF2's to a guy with the original boxes and everything. He came to pick them up in a 1980's 5.0 Mustang convertible WITH the top down in 40 degree weather. LOL! So, I asked him if he had any room in the trunk....NOPE! He then proceeded to put 1 speaker in the front seat, 2 speakers in the back seat and kinda just laid the 4th speaker on the rag-top, wedged in between the other 2 speakers. Said he didn't have far to go, but it was still funny as hell. I wish I had the camera handy at the time.

The Cornwall sound reminds me of an overgrown Heresy. I don't like the Heresy's...I have a pair on loan from my stepfather. I like my KG4's with Bob Crites upgrades better than the Heresy's Possibly the reason I like the KG4"s big brother better than the Heresy's big brother? As this thread rolls onward, I have the Cornwalls up for sale in Garage Sale, on CL and over at AudioKarma. I just don't have the money to do the re-cap on the x-overs, otherwise I would do that and then A/B them. But I can't. I have heard the Cornwalls upgraded and still prefer my Forte's. I'm pretty sure the Cornwalls are getting the boot! Yes, I said it.

If I had to describe my Forte's as an engine...they would be a Chevy 427.
