Breakdown7 Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 (edited) Regretfully, I am selling my beautiful MR71 tube tuner that is in excellent condition, inside and out. I had an accident with my MC cartridge last night and ripped off the Soundsmith ruby cantilever. Beings I listen to records 90% of the time, I have decided to let go of this tuner to fund another cartridge purchase. All the original factory tubes are included. I bought this from the original owner and sent it off to Craig at NOS Valves for his "Deluxe Restoration". Just got it back last month actually. The new owner will receive a copy of the restoration receipt, detailing the work which cost me around $350. Craig said all the original tubes tested great, and that the unit appeared to be used very little. I will also include all the original parts which were replaced by Craig. The unit will come shipped in an Audio Classics crate, double boxed and insured for safe travel. I can do $1200 shipped.

wstrickland1 Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 That would be very cool next to my C2500 & MC275. Good grief I'm going to jump in the pool. The water's only 64 degrees so that might just help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
