I purchased a Modwright Instruments 36.5 from him last September, fortunately it sounds great but he wanted extra cash for a NOS Mullard 5AR4 and a couple matched 6H30 tubes that he had for it with hardly any hours on them that he said transformed the sound over stock but i told him that i'll stick with what i already offered him for it but with the tubes included, i'm glad i did because the Mullard lit up like a 100 watt light bulb and blew the fuse on the preamp and the 6H30's were also garbage.
Someone want to verify this?
I recently sold my Lyra Delos cartridge to a guy at US Audio Mart, and I see it may be the one listed now at Audio Asylum Trader as one he purchased from a dealer in California and that it has less than 50 hours on it. I told him it had close to 120 hours on it. He didn’t even take his own pictures, he used mine. If someone wants to ask what the serial number is, and it happens to be DL4549, then that’s the one I sold him. Then he is a crook.
