Anthem Tube Preamplifier Pre2L Complete w/ Remote, Manuals, Gloves and Shipping Box Exc Cond by Sonic Frontiers

For sale is my excellent sounding Anthem PRE 2L tube preamp. I purchased this from the original owner and this has been well taken care of. Made by Sonic Frontiers, this preamp has 4 tubes (Electro Harmonix 6922 tubes are about 3 months old) within its circuit to produce a smooth natural sound. I would really like to find this unit a new home. All original goodies are intact and included (glove, screw driver, remote, brochure, and manual.) Listing as 7 / 10 based on age with some minor scratches and one nick on face plate (see photo.) This could be your first (and potentially last) tube preamp. It’s sounds that good.
Specifications are listed below. Everything will be snugly packed in the original box and shipped fully insured via FedEx, thanks.

ADVANCED CIRCUITRY:
The PRE 2L’s three stage non-inverting circuit topology is configured as a cathode coupled amplifier driving a current-sourced cathode follower. The outcome is a design which has extremely low output impedance and distortion, combined with an extended frequency response and low noise floor. The extremely low noise floor is also a result of the extensive efforts invested in grounding configuration and power supply layout.

POWER SUPPLY: Of equal importance is the PRE 2L’s over-achieving power supply design, featuring 6 stages of power supply regulation, 2 of which are high voltage, precision tracking shunt types - a trickle-down technology from the Sonic Frontiers’ LINE-3 reference line stage preamplifier!

ADJUSTABLE GAIN: This feature allows users to optimize the signal to noise ratio of their sound system, given the output voltage of the source component and the sensitivity of the associated power amplifier, and/or loudspeaker. Three gain settings are available - 8, 16 or 24 dB.

HEADPHONE CAPABILITY: The PRE 2L features a high current headphone amplifier which is located after the preamplifier stages, thus the signal path does utilize tubes. As a result of its design configuration, the PRE 2L can adequately drive the lowest impedance headphones on the market today.

COMPREHENSIVE FEATURES: With remote control, dual main outputs, a full EPL/tape loop, SSP bypass loop, headphone amplifier, 3 user-selectable gain settings, 4 inputs, mono/stereo and mute/operate switches, the PRE 2L remains flexible to the needs of the widest variety of today’s demanding audiophile consumer.

IMPECCABLE PARTS QUALITY: While a high standard was set with Sonic Frontiers’ SFL Series of preamps, the PRE 2L makes no apologies to these award-winning designs in the area of parts quality. Whether it be the use of MultiCap output coupling capacitors, 1% german-made metal film resistors, Noble volume and balance controls or Kimber Kable internal wiring, the PRE 2L has set the standard in affordable line stage preamplifiers.
