The Transfiguration Proteus MC Phono Cartridge represents the pinnacle of all that Seiji Yoshioka has learned and achieved in his pioneering and perfection of the ring-magnet construction in phono cartridges. Listening to the Proteus on a top turntable and arm combination, the usual audio industry descriptors fail...there is only music, intensely communicative music.

When you are ready to unleash the gods of music hidden in the grooves of your favourite LP's, it is time for Transfiguration Proteus MC Phono Cartridge!

Very lightly used and very low hours. Cartridge and stylus tip looks like new! Comes with original wooden box presentation case, mounting screws and spec sheet.

Vintage stereo tube power amplifier, using EL84 output tubes. In excellent condition and plays perfectly.

The 2™ XL interconnects includes our legendary HFX “Floating Ground Station.” The new insulation is modified by the addition of vacuum filled microscopic glass spheres that lower the dielectric absorption. Our patented shielding is then isolated from the termination and integrated into the wire leads.

TARA Labs proprietary SAOF-8N technology (Super-annealed, oxygen-free, frequency-tuned, OHH continuous-cast, 99.999999% pure copper conductor) creates an audio cable that is absolutely fantastic with all types of audio components. The cable is extremely detailed and rich in colour in the upper registers, a dynamic bass, and is dead quiet with both analogue and digital sources. The cable is very life-like in its musicality along with superb sound-staging and imaging.

The 2™ XL audio cable was created for both tube and digital amplification components.

In near mint condition, with chassis ground station and original box.

This true mono cartridge features a nude elliptical r/R 8/18µm stylus that is a good solution for playing mono microgroove vinyl records. The Quintet Mono will track perfectly through even worn and damaged records and ensure the surface noise control.

Quintet Mono uses a strapped output to deliver the same output signal from both sets of pole pins. This effectively eliminates the need for mono-specific equipment, making it possible to enjoy true mono reproduction on any stereo playback system.

Features
*A special ABS (Acrylonitrile/Butadiene/Styrene) thermoplastic material is used for manufacturing of the body. This light-weight, impact resistant material is very suitable for injection-moulding and provides a very durable scratch resistant surface
*Neodymium magnets are implemented to achieve an optimal output
*Low internal impedance makes the cartridge less sensitive to load and therefore ensures compatibility with the widest range of preamps and transformers

Very lightly used and performs like new. With original packaging.

The MArk Levinson ML52 is a reference quality design featuring a no-holds barred all-analogue, dual-monaural design arranged in a two-chassis system of discrete control and audio sections.

In the No.52’s control section are mirror-imaged DC power supplies and AC regeneration circuits. The audio section employs a mirrored left/right channel configuration, which includes isolated and independent circuit boards for the volume, main and auxiliary signal paths, not to mention extensive shielding. Individual DC umbilical cables between the two chassis carry power to each audio channel while control signals are conveyed via a third connection to keep them isolated.

The Mavros XLR uses the very highest quality ‘6N’ (99.99997% purity) copper manufactured using the OCC ‘Ohno Continuous Cast’ technique. In the manufacture of Mavros, we maximise the copper’s conductivity by ensuring that there is typically one grain in approximately 125 metres of conductor, allowing the signal a continuous unbroken path –in practice, the signal has a faster, cleaner and more direct path to follow.

The cable consists of a pair of conductors, each made up from six bundles of 12 multi-conductor wires, plus a thicker centre wire. This in turn is covered by a continuous copper/Mylar™ electrostatic screen with copper shielding braid, ensuring minimal susceptibility to RF interference and noise.

Atlas use cold-weld terminations wherever possible, including our current generation ‘dark Chrome’ XLR connectors. By reducing the number of materials and break points in the signal path, our objective is to minimise discontinuity and loss in the signal path, resulting in more consistent construction and improved audio performance.

In near mint condition, with original box and papers.

With Amati Anniversario, Sonus faber celebrates the birth of Andrea Amati five hundred years ago, the great Maestro of stringed instrument making from Cremona (1505-1577). This new homage is a sound diffuser perpetuating the experience gained from the most significant Sonus faber project thus far: Stradivari homage. The lute-shaped cabinet efficaciously “harmonises” resonances while dedicating considerable attention to the most innovative aspect of the projects work in the Sonus faber tradition. Amati Anniversario has been created to breathe life into the melodious weft of the fabric of music, in all its nuances, making the listening experience an extraordinarily moving event.

In excellent condition with flawless piano lacquer wood finish.
