does any one know anything about the PRA-6000 preamp?

Luke · 23rd October 2006, 06:38 AM

Hi I just bought one of these on auction and it probably needs some new caps and pots. Anyone know much about these things?
It appears to be quite high end in its day and sold for around US$3K

oh BTW its a Denon Pra-6000 and would appreciate it if anyone could help me out with a schematic or service manual.

I'd like to see a schem/service manual too.
These units are pretty rare items
Have you seen denon museum pra6000

PRA-6000 yahoo auction Japan seems to show some of the parts he has had to replace?

Sexy looking aren't they

Regards
James

Hi James,

Yes Ive seen the museum, but didnt see that other link, perhaps I should just order some new caps and pits when I get it. I think one of the pots in that link is a noble, I have a 50K one in my parts bin that may do the trick.
Do you have one of these? No idea if they are any good , but it seemed like a good buy:-)

I just got it and its beautiful. It sounds ok, but I think it needs a new pot, its very scratchy and a bit of hiss. Does anyone know if the hiss maybe semis getting noisy?
I cant find any service manuals, any ideas how to get one?
