Frankie, did you get your C-19 back yet?

What all did Rita do and post a pic. That was a great score.

Its on its way!

I spoke to Lisa and they did a pretty extensive refurb on it. It had a broken switch on it that the seller didn't mention.

Don't know if it broke in shipment, hey said it wasn't very well packed but they could not find the broken button in the box so we don't know.

Anyway apparently it was a "gang" switch (four switches in 1 unit) and labor intensive to replace. Also I was lucky Rita was able to find one.

Bob signed it and said it was mint except for the switch si it should be perfect now.

Set me back over $300.00 plus shipping so the total cost is approaching $500.00. I hope those damn TUBES are worth it.

I still have to figure out how/where I will be able to use it.

Thanks for asking. I'll let you know when it gets here.

Frank.

That is a deal!  You are one lucky Prius driver!

Congrats on the very nice preamp.  IMO you will not be disappointed!  That is a great pre!

You will love it. Smuggle it on the plane for CF next year. You can connect it up to one of our systems.

Well Frankie, If You Can't Figure Out What To Do With It And Want To Unload It, You Just Let Me Know Sir, Please.

Thanks Frank And Congrats On Owning Such A Wonderful Piece Of Equipment.

My C-19 arrived last night & it is indeed a beauty.

I unpacked it this morning & downloaded a manuel from Rich @ Carversite.

I can't wait to try it out but have no room to do it.

My brain keeps going back to it though, so I may set it up temporarily in the living room & use my pair of M400t's bridged to my Silvers.

This will not sit well with my better half but I will "sweet talk: her into it.

 

Anyway it is like new. Rita replaced some caps & the tubes along with the famous gang switch.

I think if I am not blown away with it I will be able to get my money ($500.00 +) back.

Stay tuned for further updates. Bulletins as they happen!

Bob stated he prefers the sound of the C-19 over the Sunfire tube.   If you don't like it Frankie, I could possibly be talked into taking that junkie C-19 off your hands. I always wanted one to use as a paper weight. I hear that is all they are good for.

I think you will like it Frankie!  But if you get into a bind and need some extra $$$ I know of a few of us that would be more than willing to take that off of your hands.
