$400 k+ s/h. Not accepting lower offers at this time.
I assembled this pre-amp from Elekit. The Japanese company had some of the best instructions I've seen in this space. I upgraded several of the capacitors having to do with the phono preamplifier. I also upgraded the tubes. Original tubes come with this sale. There are four RCA inputs, 1-4, no special markings on any of them. #4 is the phono. You can switch between MC/MM, there's also something called "flat amp gain" that's especially for blowing up amps. Ask me how I know 😉
It's a fabulous little pre-amp, and many more years of life left in her. Enjoy!
For a longer review, look for "TU-8500 wall of sound review." I bought this unassembled kit from tubedepot.com, it currently retails for $595.
