MFA Luminescence MC Reference preamp

It is an excellent preamp, highly regarded, and a classic. Of course, it is an older model, and would need some re-capping and such, to be what it was intended, and some mods have been found for improvement. They are fairly rare, and command high prices. It is all tube, including the separate power supply. The phono section is a very good one, as are all of Bruce Moore's phono sections. You can do better with some newer products, but the Luminscence will still be pretty close to them. And better than most of the newer stuff. If you can find one, they are probably one of the better choices in a classic unit. I currently use a MFA Magus, which was the lower cost unit made in the same era. It is not as good as a Luminescence, but still quite good, and excellent value for the money. I've had mine re-capped, re-wired,re-jacked, and new pots. It sounds real good. I'd still rather have an Aesthetix IO.
