Offering a lovely, very well designed and hand built boutique phono pre with outboard power supply. The MC 2 is designed and built by Dr. Bews who is also the owner and builder of his equipment. He is a fanatic about sound, design theory and construction; his products are simple and overbuilt. If you google LFD you will find lots of information on him, his company and products. It is deservedly very popular in England.It has a fixed standard input impedance of 47R. This circuit has been optimized for low impedance mc cartridges. He feels that switching in differing resistor values to define the input impedance produces an unacceptable level of signal degradation. If you want a different value you must replace the resistor. I used it as is to great effect with a Benz MC-1. The units are in excellent shape but do have some mars and very minor scratches to the black paint. Unit is always on and has worked flawlessly for me. I am the original owner and bought this from the Cable Co who were going to handle the line but then did not and only had this unit. I had a hard time coming up with a price for this. One sold on ebay last year for $806.54 and a dealer is asking $1,273 for one in England so I feel $775.00 is reasonable for a hand built small production boutique quality with outstanding sonics and dynamics (due to the power supply) product which include the Paypal fees and split shipping. I do not have the original box but will pack each unit securely in a box and then into a larger box for protection.
