Here we have a fully serviced and fantastic sounding Cinema Engineering AX-102 line/mic amplifier that comes with a NOS ( unobtainum ) cassette tray for mounting/wiring. These are almost impossible to find in teched and working condition for sale. Unit was recapped less than a year ago and has new ceramic sockets (gold plated pins) and is ready for the next 60 years!. I have around 10 of these modules (2 of which are for sale) and love them. They sound fantastic, overdrive gracefully and can go from squeaky clean to raging depending on how you run them. Unit has original hand wired (reverse Pi wind) non inductive 1% resistors in the audio path. Coupling caps are mundorf supremes and are far superior to the originals , in fact we gained 2 dB of "free" gain over using standard caps in the coupling position. . You are welcome to hear the preamp if you are in the southern California area and try out them against any line or mic pre you want, these come out on top!
