FOR SALE: One rare Audio Tekne LT-8310 line transformer. Imai-san handwinds these transformers to go between components, and quite specifically between the CD player and the preamp. He says they "open up the sound." He says they are especially useful between solid state components as they "reduce the odd-order harmonics which ride as overtones on the signal."PRICE: $650 (vs original retail price of $1700) COSMETIC CONDITION: Excellent cosmetic condition. SHIPPING: Shipping is worldwide from Japan. I can send EMS (registered airparcel), by boat (cheapest), or by air/land (which usually comes to be 10-20% cheaper than EMS). As an indication, the package is likely to be about 1.0-1.5kg including packing materials, which means shipping of the whole unit would probably cost on the order of $25-35 (to be confirmed) by EMS to the US and half that by surface freight. PAYMENT: I will take international bank transfer, personal check after it clears (~2wks), international postal money order, or Moneygram - the cheapest fast way to pay! I am just starting to let stuff go on Audiogon (and AA), but I have an extensive Japanese internet auction history with excellent feedback and can provide the name on request (along with a method to confirm (in realtime) that it's me if you want). I am also a long-standing member of Audioasylum and Audiogon. Questions welcome by email, and I can call to discuss as well (though keep in mind I am on E.S.T +13hrs). Higher-res pics available on request. SPECS
