Seeking some info on Allnic L-3000


Hi all- I have the opportunity to acquire a gently used Allnic L-3000 preamp. I’d appreciate any end user information on this piece. What to lookout for, any known issues and such. It will be replacing my Levinson 380s. My amp is the ARC D400mkII.   
 

Thoughts?

@lak,

“I use my Allnic L-3000 on the average of three hours per day (maybe more) seven days a week and have not had a need to replace any tubes yet.

I don't do any tube rolling because it came with very good tubes but I see no reason why you couldn't roll tubes.”

 

So how many hours do you estimate that you have in total on the stock tubes. Your average would be 21 hours per week, 21x4 (weeks) = 84 hours per month. What’s missing is the starting period to derive at the total hours used. Thanks.
