****************************** FOR SALE ********************************** Audiophile Tube Preamp by Audible Illusions !!! Audible Illusions Modulus 2 C/D Features include: * Minimalist design consideration throughout * Tiffany 24kt gold connectors on all inputs/outputs * High-quality (4) 6DJ8 design * Excellent build quality Here are some quotes from International Audio Review: " The Modulus is the best bargain in audio preamps today. It is a world class high end preamp at a budget price. It is the least expensive preamp you and your music can be happy with the rest of your life. The modulus stands head and shoulders above all the other top budget preamps in our survey in virtually all sonic aspects. But it does more. This preamp also clobbers every other preamp under $1695.00, and even many priced above that (for example, it embarrasses certain tube preamps at $3000 and $3500, and certain solid state esoterics selling for up to $5750 and $7500). The Modulus is the paradigm of tube sound virtues at their best, with effortless open bloom and liquidity that reveals the natural timbre and texture of instruments and voices. Yet it is also accurate, being very transparent and clean, like the very best high end preamps." There is also a very wonderful review of this preamp in the current issue of Hi-Fi Heretic ( another high end magazine ) were they state that this preamp is one of the 10 best products in the entire industry!!! Enough for the hipe and on to the business at hand! Retail price of the Modulus 2D is $945.00 I bought this preamp about a year ago. I have all the original packaging and can offer a warranty with it. It is in mint condition. I am asking $525.00 or best offer. Shipping outside of the Chicago area can be negotiated. I am currently using the preamp in my system so any interested party in the Chicago area can come out and listen anytime. Just give me a call at (708) 717-7031 home or (708) 512-7776 work.
