C-4000 - very nice - with upgraded power cord

I am moving on to tubes.

I want to offer this very nice preamp here first, at a lower price, before I offer it on Audiogon.

I have a late model Serial #9148, Black, C-4000 with Element Basic power cord available. C-4000’s changed and improved over time. The phono board was improved and got quieter and a number of other big changes were made. I have been told by an expert that units with a serial #6000+ tend to be the best.

This is without a doubt the most flexible preamp I have ever owned.

Both moving magnet, and moving coil phono. I have a very nicely bound owner’s manual. It is a copy, but one might easily think it was an original.

There are a few scratches or nicks here and there on the case that have been touched up with felt tip pen. There are a few little nicks on the knobs, but they only show in really bright light, again felt tip pen. Over all the preamp looks very good.

The face plate and all the silk screening is very, very good! This really is a nice looking preamp.

The owner’s manual calls it a High Fidelity Control Console
--Wide-range Full-function Preamplifier
--Sonic Hologram Generator
--Autocorrelator Noise Reduction System
--Peak Unlimiter Dynamic Range Expander
--Time Delay

Sale pending

Glad to see you have it sold. I like the c-4000 but have been told by my check book I cannot buy anything for a while.

Wait. Don't you still have checks in there. Sure you can spend money. That is the way my daughters do it.

I have like over 500 checks. Just got some more printed. But you and I both know it does not work that way.

What do you mean, man? You can buy anything you want AND go on several vacations with that many checks.

And then after that the state or federal gov. will house, cloth, and feed you for FREE for a lot of years.

Sold to forum member.
