California Audio Labs CL-2500

I know some of you saw this listing already on the list, but I figured I'd pop it on here for more exposure. Forum price $400. Pepe, that means you too!!  :P

I will be in Grove city Friday and Sunday nights, so if you want it, we will exchange there.

I am confident that an SL-1200 is capable of outperforming turntables of much higher expense with minor modification.

Eduardo:

I was going to get the Polks and the Bryston and an Integra pre from you but you never got back to me after xmas  :-\.  I bought the Aragon amp from Frank instead (well,  it will be mine when I pay him, maybe tonight) and I was able to get an interesting Souncraftsmen pre from Jim P (don't get all judgy on me,  owning a Soundcraftsmen piece has always been in my bucket list, now it is done).  The Polks would have been an interesting add to the ol home theater,  but I assume you are not selling them any more since you never got back to me  >:(

The I like the most about this California Audio pre is the name.  Right now I would not mind living in California.  Net of that I am good with my Denon receiver for HT.  This is a beautiful pre though, and I bet it sounds great in stereo as well.   I hope you sell it fast. 

Regards

Pepe

I would have sold you the polks, but things just moved too fast and I had to get my shit to Erie. They ended up going to a friend up here. The Bryston will be re-listed once I replace the power switch. The Integra is remaining in my main system.

Ed, this retailed for $5400 and for anyone looking at it, $400 is a steal.  It does 2 channel just as well as 5.1.  I know.  Good luck with the sale.

Bump again. I'll be in Pittsburgh this Friday. I can drop it off at the shop if anyone is interested.
