Conrad Johnson PV5 Tube Stereo Preamplifier TESTED Possibly Parts Unit **READ**.
**PLEASE READ and ASK ANY QUESTIONS**
Tubes in unit appear to be, (2)12AX7s and (4)5751s and (2) 5965s
PROVIDING 8 SPARE TUBES WITH THE UNIT AS I WAS GIVEN THEM AT TIME OF PURCHASING.
THE SPARE TUBES ARE IN THE PHOTOS. Was told they were tested some NOS and some random ones. (SEE PICS) I can not verify that they were tested as I did not personally test them.
I am the second owner of... this beautiful unit. I purchased the PV5 sight unseen aside from plugging in and powering the unit on as I was told it had been sitting for quite some time, but it appeared to be in excellent condition and powered right up.
I brought the unit home and took off the lid and it all looked really good inside and appeared to be a really clean complete untouched unit. Was told the tubes had been changed before when purchasing.
I plugged the unit In with a set of speakers wired up to it along with a tape deck. After about a minute maybe a little longer tubes lit up and appeared to be operating great and I got some good sound through both channels 1 and 2. Wasn’t perfect but for sitting for quite some time seemed pretty great. While testing the rest of the units and speaker inputs the unit began to smoke on the far right back corner area.
THE UNIT WAS IMMEDIATELY SHUT DOWN AND UNPLUGGED. SMOKING STOPPED
Now I am here selling it as it is out of my scope but it appears to be a simple fix and does not seem to be a main component nor did it shut anything down once it happen. No loud pops or loss of sound etc... I POWERED THE UNIT ON FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS TO TAKE PHOTOS FOR THIS LISTING. (No smoke at that time)
THERE IS A IMAGE OF THE AREA THAT WAS SMOKING IN THE DETAILED PICTURES.
Condition is Used for parts as is
Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
