[B]Ex-demo P9 and Reference 9SE in Rose Copper, ex demo in good condition, some minor wear-and-tear only. Provided with all accessories and 1 year warranty[/B] Making way for new V3 verions! P9 preamplifier - £1395 (from £2200) Ref 9 SE monos - £2195 (from £3500) The P-9 preamp is housed in two separate chassis. The first contains three separate power supplies and microprocessor control logic, the second chassis houses the analogue volume control input selection relays and sensitive analogue circuit components. Designed to be partnered (not exclusively) with the NuForce Reference series of power amplifiers, the P-9 chassis matches their form factor and is available in the same colours. The heart of the P9 is an all-discrete precision operational amplifier module. Ultra low-noise monolithic dual JFETs, specially selected VMOS FETs and extremely flat hFE bipolar transistors are arranged in a dual cascade configuration, its shield driven to reduce capacitive loading on the final voltage amp. This allows the P9 to achieve 5MHz power bandwidth with a S/N ratio exceeding 100dB with more than 120 dB of dynamic range. The P-9's inherently stable gain circuitry features no capacitors or DC servos in the signal path The Reference 9SE V2 Mono Block features the very best in components with no expense spared, offering the very best in audiophile performance. It isn't cheap sure, but believe me it has been worth the wait and more importantly is well worth the money. The Reference 9 SE V2 incorporates an improved power supply board with a low-ESR capacitor bank. Further enhancements include a separate switching power supply for the analogue front-end, and improvements to the signal input section, including higher quality input capacitors, and the installation of premium 6-nines, oxygen-free copper input wiring. The SE version also comes fitted with the WBT NextGen RCA input connector and the Eichmann speaker "cable pods" as standard, and is switchable between balanced and single ended mode at input.
