Cello Palette w/ Capacitors


My dad passed away and left me a Cello Palette pre-amplifier and a set of capacitors for it, which I am not sure were meant as an upgrade or if they needed replacement. Any advice about what I should do with this equipment?

 

Thanks,

Steve

You have a very, very fine piece there. Why not keep it and use it to bring music into your home and life? Assuming it's in good operating order, it could bring years and years of pleasure.

My feeling those capacitors are back up parts, Mark Levinson said cello parts are costum made and they are are to find.

I hear you on the "keep it" front. it certainly seems like a great option if I can--the resale of these things seems very complicated. The problem is that this is just one piece of a huge collection of stuff, some of which is in working order probably, but its filling up my mom's house, she has hearing loss and no use for it, and I am probably soon going into a graduate study program where i will need to be mobile and live like a pauper. I mean look at this list--and this is just the "audiophile" stuff excluding some big speakers, horns, subwoofers, ...

Not to mention a metric ton of specialized cables. It is just not in the cards for my lifestyle at the moment.
