TO SELL

My recently finished B1 Passive Preamplifier, based upon the PCB sold by Pass Labs, and with some nice goodies inside:

-Fully aluminum body, painted in black powder finish.
- Solid aluminum knobs, front plate, and black plate with all imprints.
- CMC silver RCA plugs, Neutrik 32A mains plug (the best).
- Gold plated Bulgin fuse holder.
- All signal internal cabling is Mundorf M-Wire, 99% silver + 1% gold + HGC
monofilament pure silver wire covered in pure Teflon sleeve.
- All power cabling from Nordost.
- Input selector from ELMA.
- Volume control based on a Shalco type 41 positions selector, with military
SMD low noise resistors - 10K linear type.
- Input resistors Caddock TF020 + Caddock MP130 in other positions. Some
PRP, and one MILLS power resistor.
- Signal Caps are V-CAP (the best).
- Filtering caps are Nichicon MUSE gold (> 25.000uF).
- Power transformer is 50VA! R-Core.
- Power Supply based on a discrete Mosfet regulated design, with MUR820
rectifiers.

The sound? simply Beaaaaautiful.

Why? DIY bug allways thinking of the next project.

Selling almost for the cost price: 1.500€ (includes free shipping to EC), International please ask for a quotation. Don't forget this is made for 240VAC mains, nevertheless easly adaptable for other countries in a good electronics shop.

Includes a Supra LoRad mains cable with Neutrik type IEC 32A plug, and Supra Schuko gold plated mains plug.

is that one thousand six hundred and fifty?

That's a lot of money for something you can build yourself for less then a tenth of the asking price ! Maybe it is a good thing to put some pictures on the web to show your B1

rclourenco · 3rd October 2009, 02:00 PM

That´s correct!

rclourenco · 3rd October 2009, 02:05 PM

Yes you can build it even for less, but please check page 181 of that preamp thread, and the photos, and then tell me. A tenth would be 165€, that alone is the start proce for a mono version of the Shalco type volume control, and then...well, V-Caps and other goodies...maybe the price isn't so wrong.

Cheers and happy building.

PS - Its up to each other to buy or not whatever we find suitable for our needs or pocket size. I invite you to build one just like that for the price I'm asking...
