Gwilym Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 (edited) for sale: Trace Elliott V-Type preamp/Trace Elliott PPA300 power amp. I "won" this pre/power combination on ebay a couple of years back, after I got a bit of GAS from listening to the sound clips of the V-Type pre on Basstasters. Anyhow, i haven't used it since I bought it other than the occasional use at home, so I guess I should let it go! The previous owner used both extensively (from new i think), and so cosmetically they are not perfect, but sound very nice. I will get pictures up as soon as, probably on the weekend now. I've got some £225 invested in this - I'd like £200 firm, and no trades thanks, got some stuff potentially incoming already, hence freeing up a bit of cash to help soften the blow [b]cash on collection please - and given that I've not used this gear a great deal, and never pushed it, I'll offer a money back guarantee if there are any problems with it - the catch is you'll have to collect/return in West London[/b] (btw, can't get on here during work hours, so don't expect a quick reply during the day) Details of the PPA300 on page 17 of this pdf file: [attachment=10101:SMX.PDF] Details of the V-Type in this pdf: [attachment=10102:V_Type.pdf] Pictures (click on them for full size): [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/Gwilym/vtype/DSCN1793.jpg"][/url][url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/Gwilym/vtype/DSCN1794.jpg"][/url][url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/Gwilym/vtype/DSCN1795.jpg"][/url][url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/Gwilym/vtype/DSCN1796.jpg"][/url][url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/Gwilym/vtype/DSCN1797.jpg"][/url] [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/Gwilym/vtype/DSCN1798.jpg"][/url][url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/Gwilym/vtype/DSCN1799.jpg"][/url][url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/Gwilym/vtype/DSCN1800.jpg"][/url][url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/Gwilym/vtype/DSCN1801.jpg"][/url][url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v722/Gwilym/vtype/DSCN1802.jpg"][/url] Edited June 28, 2008 by Gwilym Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I'm very tempted, but I have to fly out to Dubai tonight. Is someone going to beat me to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molan Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I've seen a couple of the PPA300's sell for around the £200 mark on Ebay recently - I'd been watching them to partner my Trace Pre-Amp! Bought an EBS instead though so I'm not in contention now. Excellent price, someone should snap this up quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you be prepared to split?[/quote] hey Merton, yes as long as the power amp sells first. not sure how I would price them individually thought. my current price kind of reflects a "buy the pre amp, get the power amp free" scenario. If I split, some thing like £175 for the pre, and £50 for the power amp - I'll get all the money I have in it back, and still a good deal for whoever gets each piece i think.
