Mark Levinson ML-5A Half-Inch Stereo Master Recorder-Reproducer In Near Mint Condition

I have for sale a Mark Levinson ML-5A (Based on the legendary Studer A80) presently at ATAE in California, undergoing evaluation with possible restoration however, I have decided to sell it. Fred Thal of ATAE reports that this is the nicest ML-5 he has ever encountered. It has near mint cosmetics, extremely low hours, the heads look new and iit has perfect furniture (no scratches or dings). The ATAE evaluation report is included. The ML-5 uses the Levinson remote power supply for audio circuitry which is included. It has Lemo single-ended (or Fischer) connectors only (no XLRs) however, these can easily be altered before sale. This unit does not come with meters however, ATAE can supply them if required. The buyer also has the option to takeover my service reservation at ATAE for a complete bearings exchange in January 2015. This will make the machine better than new. Please see the ATAE website (ataudioeng) for information about why the bearings are so very important in the Studer A80s. Please email with any questions you may have and thanks for looking.
