Tomorrow after work I'm going to look at, and most likely buy a working Dynaco PAS-3X tube preamp for $200. Owner claims some "service" was done to it five years ago, and it's been sitting around all that time because he has two of them. I called him up, he said he was listening to it now.
I had a line on one locally for $150 (which started this), but the guy is not returning my e-mails, even tried a PM (different forum) and it's been a couple of days.
What should I know about this unit?
What should I look out for?
I will be able to test /audition it and will have to bring my own turntable.
This will be a temporary fix until I get my GRAAF tube pre-amp repaired. Like the Dynaco ST-120A SS amp I bought a while back, I hope to recoup my investment when I get my main system back in order. At least that's the current plan.
