Description:

I am the original owner of this Vinyl One, which includes the optional stainless steel faceplate, 50k ohms volume control, and MM/MC switch. Kurt Morgan at Soundstage, praised the Vinyl One as “an outstanding component straight out of the box. If music is a passion that runs deep, if you seek to serve the music in an honest, respectful way, you may find the perfect tool in the Vinyl One.”

Joe Fratus tuned up my Vinyl One about three years ago and I have not used it since then. I entered graduate school around that time and my downsized apartment is too small for a full vinyl rig. So, this unit has seen very light usage.

I’ve rated the Vinyl One as "very good" because of age, wear marks to the screws on the top panel (from inserting/removing tubes), and light wear marks on the back panel. It will ship with the original Art Audio double box, cord, and manual. I will also include a set of lightly used NOS tubes from Upscale Audio that I purchased from Joe ( 3 x GE JAN 12AX7, 1 x RCA 6CG7).

In addition to the Vinyl One, I am selling a Wyetech Jade preamp, Art Audio PX-25 amp, phono preamp, a BAT VK-D5 SE CD player, and cables.

I am a new audioxsell member, but have been an active member at audiogon and eBay for years. To check my feedback at audiogon, search for username Captsensible; at eBay, search for Capt.sensible (I have a new username at audioxsell because I wasn't able to register as Captsensible).

Payment Terms: Paypal, Money Order, Check, Cash

If buyer is picking up the Vinyl One, I will accept cash. Otherwise, I accept PayPal (plus 3%), money order or a check. A check must clear before shipment.

Shipping Terms: United States, Canada, Local Pick-up

The Vinyl One weighs about 25 pounds in its original shipping box. The buyer will pay actual shipping costs, along with insurance (for your peace of mind and mine).
