eth2 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) I am selling my Juicy Music Peach. It has all the latest updates, including moving the RCA jacks off the board and onto the steel panel. I have a whooshing sound when connected to my VAC amp and KLF30's. I have replaced all the tubes but the issue remains. Perhaps it is not compatible with my amp. However, as Clint Eastwood said "A man has got to know his limitations." I have over $1,500 in this preamp and will sell for$1,100. It has a case as well. Edited February 3, 2015 by eth2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzydog Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I enjoy pics of Mark's handiwork even if I'm not in the market. Good luck with your sale. Regards, Fuzzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A1UC Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 How does it work with the VRD's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eth2 Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 I don't know how it works with the VRD's since they are at our house in Ithaca and there are hum issues in that house with some tube equipment (not the VRD's or the NBS though). The Peach is in Rochester and that hum does not exist here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eth2 Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 Also, I am not disparaging the Peach. I have read glowing reviews and spoken with people who would not trade them. For me, and my amp, it does not seem to be compatible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joessportster Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Synergy means everything, and its a simple fact not all gear is compatible, good luck with the sale and subsequent search for a replacement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eth2 Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 Synergy means everything, and its a simple fact not all gear is compatible, good luck with the sale and subsequent search for a replacement I bought a used Carey SLP2002. It lacks some of the great characteristics of the Peach, but it is compatible with my VAC amp (which I love). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1101 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Peaches sound excellent with VRDs. Owned both for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joessportster Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 For anyone interested in Earl's Peach: I've had it here when doing the mods and it was perfect in all respects. I will guarantee this unit myself to any buyer that there is no problem with it, or I will repair it free. If you'd like, Earl can even send it to me before you get it and I will examine it again, and send it on to the buyer. I normally would not comment on sales like this, but I know this unit well,and I want to backstop Earl here. Classy move Mark. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
