I picked this up, can you guess what it is?

Phono pre or m/c step up w/outboard power supply?

Definitely made by someone that knows electronics but has zero woodworking skills.

It is not a phono stage, it does use three 12ax7 tubes though.

LOL! I was thinking the same thing.

It's a two channel something with an outboard power supply. A preamp or headphone amp?

I was looking for an IC thinking perhaps it is a tube DAC, but I don't see one.

A tube RCA to XLR converter!!! Curious to see how it sounds and see if it will double up as a buffer. Either way, a interesting piece. Thanks, Nick
