ANK kits (Audio Note) L2 Phono(MM) Preamp, 240Volt, built 2018. 3x line inputs and one MM Phono input. Built in 2018 with many Audio Note upgrades incorporated during the build, (see below).The Preamp gives out a lot of gain, so I’m including the Rothwell attenuators that I’ve been using between the preamp and power amp. Without them there is a hum from the excessive gain. Valve used (Current type supplied in brackets)Power board: ECL82 (Russian) and 6X5 (RCA)Line stage: Two x 12AU7 (Electro Harmonix)Phono Board: 12AX7 (Electro Harmonix) and 6922 (JJ) Updgrades on the Phono and Line stageAudio Note Tantalum ResistorsAudio Note Copper CapsAudio Note Kaisei Electrolytic CapacitorsSilver Mica capacitors Updgrades on Power boardAudio Note Tin Foil CapacitorAudio Note Standard Capacitor x1 Other upgradesAudio Note AN-A wire, (the yellow one, through-out see photos)Audio Note volume potAudio Note Power Transformer and Choke from HiFi collectiveAudio Note RCA silver terminalsUnderside on Line and Phono boards hardwired with silver wire, see construction picture Reason for sale: I was having problems with my power amp and had listened to several AN power amps in conjunction with this preamp. I also listened to an AN integrated amp and decided to change direction and buy that, although it was double my budget.So this preamp has been resting for the last couple of years. Collection in person would be preferred, so you can hear it, albeit with a SS power amp. Otherwise UK only by UPS courier.

Up for sale is my Audio Note Kit L3 PhonoV2 Signature phono stage. Cosmetically in mint condition. It was purchased in April of 2022 and used in my system for less than 6 months with my ss integrated while my Fisher 500c was being fully restored. Now that it has, I no longer need this standalone phono stage. I purchased nos grade vintage rectifier tubes for the power supply, including a JAN 1960s Sylvania 6x5 and 1960s GE ECL82. The 6922 tube is a provided EH tube and the 12ax7 is a Sylvania early 60s long gray plate.
