This unit was only used a couple of times and then developed a problem. It was put in a box for several years and not used. According to the original owner/my friend…. “It blows the fuse”. That is all the information that I have on the unit. It still has the original white plastic protection on top of the preamp. Comes with the preamp itself, outboard power supply, and umbilical connection cable. Fantastic cosmetic condition.

THE METAXAS IRAKLIS: Reviewed by Jean Hiraga/Patrick Vercher, LA NOUVELLE REVUE DU SON, France We have already tested in this column one of the best models in the prestigious Metaxas range, the Solitaire amplifier. We have selected this time from the reference such as Marquis, Charisma, Opulence or Soliloquy, the Iraklis Amplifier which powers 2 x 50 W. One finds, on the Iraklis Amplifier - Hercules in Greek, a symbol of strength - a conception of pure audiophile which is always present in each piece of this range of Australian origin. This company, Metaxas Audio Systems (MAS), directed by a man with a grand passion for high end audio, Kostas Metaxas has always fixed as its objective, the conception of amplifiers and preamplifiers responding to the different needs of audiophiles particularly the perfectionists, and to this end the company makes no concessions that could destroy the performances in terms of transparency or dynamics. The Iraklis, of smaller dimensions, renders the same aesthetic as the 2 x 100W Solitaire. It is very different from the classical rack modesl with which we are familiar and has the box form with front face, almost square (22x18.5) anodised black linked to a quite narrow chassis (20.5cm) but quite deep (37cm). The heatsinks of the power suplies are not placed conventionally - usually on the top of the chassis - but they are placed behind of the chassis on lateral sides of it. If this conception was not enhanced by chrome, by an impeccable finish, one could be foregiven for thinking that it was a creation of an amateur audiophile more anxious about problems of thermic dissipation or searching for very short internal links rather than a classical high end piece of equipment. The implementation of the different elements shows that there is no mystery on these points. The linking between each RCA input (gold plated of excellent quality) is reduced to a few millimetres. In output, the speaker terminals are very near the output stage transistors which are Japanese Toshiba complements 2SC 2563/2SA 1093 rated at 80 watts. All the components of the amplification section of each channel, with the exception of the power supply, are on a surface of note more than 8 x 10cm. It is difficult to do better and this philosophy is applied to all of the best pieces like the Charisma preamplifier which has no internal wire link. If the philosophy of the circuit is not really a new one, it uses formulas that have always proved to be amongst the finest of the audio specialists: driver stages working in pure class A, power supplies of huge dimensions with very fast rectifiers in parallel and filter condensers of very high capacity (22,000mF x 4), Darlington type power stage complemented and temperature stabilised, differential and symmetric input circuits, multiple local feedback circuits which allow the application of a total negative feedback which is only 10dB. Bessel type input filtering which eliminates radio frequencies above 500kHz, in the gradual slope this allows the removal of all incidence on the stability or on the phase in the audio band. On each channel the active components are limited to about 15:2 power transistors, 2 driver transistors, (2SC 2275/2SA 985), 1 operational amplifier comparer (LF351, which gives compensation for DC offset) input transistors and pre-drivers of Amercian and European origin. (BC 549, 559, 2N 2205 2219). The components of diverse origins, (Europe, USA, Japan) have each been chosen according to criteria as much technical as it is subjective: WIMA MKS4 polycarbonate condensers, metallic film resistors with a 2% tolerance, polystyrene condensers (for small value). On the power supply side, the transformer under the armour-plated cover is 1000VA (over dimensioned because 300VA would have been more than sufficient) has on the second side, four fuses for protection and another one, general, on the first side. The rectification is not assured by a diode bridge but by some (triplets) of rapid diodes IN4004 shown in parallel (not commutation pics). The configuration being double mono type, the power supply circuits are separated from the transformer which has a single common winding but a double secondary winding. All of the pieces composing the chassis are made starting from non-magnetic metals such as stainless steel, light aluminium alloys. Compared with the Solitaire, the Iraklis offer for the price of a limited power to 2 x 50W, a simple push-pull output stage (the Solitaire is a quadruple push-pull type). The back panel has only the essential: input connectors, H.P. connectors, A.C. connectors. The front panel only has the on/off switch. For the specifications, the manufacturer proclaims a signal to noise ratio of -117dB (with a short circuited input), an input impedence of 130 kOhms, a damping factor of 500 and an average harmonic distortion of 0.25%.

The back panel has only the essential: input connectors, H.P. connectors, A.C. connectors. The front panel only has the on/off switch. For the specifications, the manufacturer proclaims a signal to noise ratio of -117dB (with a short circuited input), an input impedence of 130 kOhms, a damping factor of 500 and an average harmonic distortion of 0.25%.

METAXAS (MAS) IRAKLIS High End Audiophile Stereo Power Amplifier 50 Watts RMS Per Channel Audiophile Power Amplifier Top and bottom plate : stainless steel plate.included original wood(plywood) carrier case.120VAC 60HzS/N No. 0 570Unit net weight : 18Kgs (40LB)Good working condition. * Since this power amplifier does not have a power relay, you must turn off the power and then turn off the preamplifier after some time has passed. THE METAXAS IRAKLIS: Reviewed by Jean Hiraga/Patrick Vercher, LA NOUVELLE REVUE DU SON, France We have already tested in this column one of the best models in the prestigious Metaxas range, the Solitaire amplifier. We have selected this time from the reference such as Marquis, Charisma, Opulence or Soliloquy, the Iraklis Amplifier which powers 2 x 50 W. One finds, on the Iraklis Amplifier - Hercules in Greek, a symbol of strength - a conception of pure audiophile which is always present in each piece of this range of Australian origin. This company, Metaxas Audio Systems (MAS), directed by a man with a grand passion for high end audio, Kostas Metaxas has always fixed as its objective, the conception of amplifiers and preamplifiers responding to the different needs of audiophiles particularly the perfectionists, and to this end the company makes no concessions that could destroy the performances in terms of transparency or dynamics. The Iraklis, of smaller dimensions, renders the same aesthetic as the 2 x 100W Solitaire. It is very different from the classical rack modesl with which we are familiar and has the box form with front face, almost square (22x18.5) anodised black linked to a quite narrow chassis (20.5cm) but quite deep (37cm). The heatsinks of the power suplies are not placed conventionally - usually on the top of the chassis - but they are placed behind of the chassis on lateral sides of it. If this conception was not enhanced by chrome, by an impeccable finish, one could be foregiven for thinking that it was a creation of an amateur audiophile more anxious about problems of thermic dissipation or searching for very short internal links rather than a classical high end piece of equipment. The implementation of the different elements shows that there is no mystery on these points. The linking between each RCA input (gold plated of excellent quality) is reduced to a few millimetres. In output, the speaker terminals are very near the output stage transistors which are Japanese Toshiba complements 2SC 2563/2SA 1093 rated at 80 watts. All the components of the amplification section of each channel, with the exception of the power supply, are on a surface of note more than 8 x 10cm. It is difficult to do better and this philosophy is applied to all of the best pieces like the Charisma preamplifier which has no internal wire link. If the philosophy of the circuit is not really a new one, it uses formulas that have always proved to be amongst the finest of the audio specialists: driver stages working in pure class A, power supplies of huge dimensions with very fast rectifiers in parallel and filter condensers of very high capacity (22,000mF x 4), Darlington type power stage complemented and temperature stabilised, differential and symmetric input circuits, multiple local feedback circuits which allow the application of a total negative feedback which is only 10dB. Bessel type input filtering which eliminates radio frequencies above 500kHz, in the gradual slope this allows the removal of all incidence on the stability or on the phase in the audio band. On each channel the active components are limited to about 15:2 power transistors, 2 driver transistors, (2SC 2275/2SA 985), 1 operational amplifier comparer (LF351, which gives compensation for DC offset) input transistors and pre-drivers of Amercian and European origin. (BC 549, 559, 2N 2205 2219). The components of diverse origins, (Europe, USA, Japan) have each been chosen according to criteria as much technical as it is subjective: WIMA MKS4 polycarbonate condensers, metallic film resistors with a 2% tolerance, polystyrene condensers (for small value). On the power supply side, the transformer under the armour-plated cover is 1000VA (over dimensioned because 300VA would have been more than sufficient) has on the second side, four fuses for protection and another one, general, on the first side. The rectification is not assured by a diode bridge but by some (triplets) of rapid diodes IN4004 shown in parallel (not commutation pics). The configuration being double mono type, the power supply circuits are separated from the transformer which has a single common winding but a double secondary winding.

Selling my Marquis Memento Mori Headphone preamp / amplifier. I purchased this from the Netherlands in 2019 and has remained un-used for the past few years with a very low overall runtime. Please look up technical specs from their official site or other listings elsewhere. This was $6,000 MSRP retail, so this markdown is priced to sell. Eyes illuminate red when powered on and have a built in spectral analyzer in the eyes to show audio levels real-time along with your music. Unit also doubles as a headphone holder. Last 3 pictures show the scuff marks on unit; 1 is on the backside not visible during use, the topside of the back of the base has a scuff mark (can probably be covered with sharpie), and there is a roughly 2mm scuff on the left side of the forehead on the unit. All are minor and do not affect use. This is an extremely rare and limited release, only few were made into existence. Perfect collectors piece for an audiophile, gothic/skull enthusiast, Dia de Muertos, Raiders fan perhaps, anything skull design related really lol. Ships with original accessories and packaging contents to keep safe during transit.

Aus meiner Sammlung, die ich verkleinern möchte, biete ich Ihnen einen extrem seltenen High End Tonarm zum Verkauf an. Googeln Sie Metaxas Audio Systeme. Da finden Sie reichlich Infos zu diesem Ausnahme- Tonarm. Aktueller Neupreis um 10000 US Dollar. Googeln Sie mal Metaxas & Sins Perambulator Turntable and Combobulator Tonearm by Analog Planet. Da steht alles, was man darüber erfahren kann! Ein komplexerer Tonarm ist mir nicht bekannt. Ausgestattet mit 4 Diamantlager und weißen Saphierkugeln. Der Tonarm ist etwas für Freaks die viel Erfahrung mit der Justage haben! Die abgebildeten Laufwerke sind nicht Bestandteil dieses Angebotes! Die teilweise mit abgebildeten Tonarmbasen u.a. für ein Micro Seiki Laufwerk kann ich dazu geben. Eine Dr. Feickert DFA Tonarmmontageplatte, so wie abgebildet, wäre ebenfalls zu haben.Bei Sofortkauf werden beide Basen mitgegeben. Die Micro Seiki ist eine aus 3-D Druck hergestellte Base. Das Micro Seiki Laufwerk, letztes Bild, biete ich in einem weiteren Angebot hier an. In anderen Angeboten biete ich weitere Schätzchen an. Versandkosten nur innerhalb EU wegen Zollaufwand, auf Anfrage. Das ist ein Verkauf ohne gewerblichen Interessen, aus meiner privatem Sammlung. Ich verkleinere meinen Fundus und benötige Platz! Bei Kauf erklären Sie sich ausdrücklich damit einverstanden, auf die Ihnen nach neuem EU-Recht gesetzlich zustehende Gewährleistung, bzw. Sachmängelhaftung, Garantie und Umtausch bei Privatverkauf von Gebrauchtwaren, völlig zu verzichten! Alle Markennamen, und eingetragenen Warenzeichen sind Eigentum Ihrer rechtmäßigen Eigentümer und dienen nur der Beschreibung!

Verkaufe eine der aufwendigsten und besten Vorstufen, die jegebaut wurden. Das Gert hat seinerzeit 19.000,00 DM gekostet (in der Standard-Version; die hier angebotene Version mit dem Regulatornetzteil wareinige tausend DM teurer, aber den genauen Preis kenne ich nicht) und stammtvon 1986 und wurde nur ganz selten benutzt. Das Geraet wurde krzlich von einem spezialisten mit Orivinalplaenen ueberarbeitet. Eine Rechnung liegt vor. Der Nachfolger im Designgehuse kostet als Hochpegelversionbei Metaxas nun 69.000! Das Gert ist technisch sehr gut, wurde bereits teilweiseberarbeitet (nicht verbastelt) und die einzige originale Schwachstelle (dasbillige Poti) wurde durch ein hochwertiges Alps- Poti ersetzt. Aktuell wurde das Gert aufwendig restauriert (viele Elkossowie neue Verstrkerstufen). Bei dieser Version handelt es sich nicht um die damals beiStereoplay getestete billige Version mit dem Standardnetzteil, sondern um dieteurere Version mit einer Iraklis- Endstufe als Spannungsregler- Netzteil. Natrlich ist die Vorstufe auch fr Phono geeignet undrauscht selbst bei einem mittellauten MC wie dem Kiseki Purple Heart praktischnicht. Die Verarbeitung ist ber jeden Zweifel erhaben. Es handelt sich um ein original 230V Gert, welches nur vonNichtrauchern genutzt worden ist Here I sellthe legendary pre amp made by Kostas Metaxas in the better version with the regulatorpower supply. This pre amp was reworked a few month ago by specialist according to the original drawings. The repair report is available. The actual version from Metaxas is offered for 69000 as high-levelversion. This unitis so far original, but the potentiometer has been replaced with a high gradeunit, far better that the original one. Actually, the unit was refurbished by aspecialist. This is a230V unit and made for a medium loud MC or MM cartridge when used on phono. This is anon smoker unit but I do not offer warranty because I am a private person
