hi there, my feedback thread is available here: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f12/leeperry-407556/
so I'm selling a Firestone Audio Little Country III:
it comes w/ a bunch of cables:
you will need a plug adapter or a new power cable for UK/US/ASIA I think.
there's a jumper in the PSU to switch between 110/220V(it's currently set on 220V, and is fully 230V compatible):
there's also a switch to change the volume pot behavior: Volume Control “Series or Shunt” setting
more inside shots:

you can read some reviews in that thread: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f5/lit...ml#post5738260
so it comes w/ an invoice from February 2010 and still carries a 10 months warranty, it's working perfectly fine...the only issue being that the LED on the LC3 itself doesn't light up?! it works fine on the PSU, though.
FWIW, the blue led on my Firestone Spitfire DAC also blinks from time to time, I've taped it anyway as I cannot stand bright LED's...but it doesn't seem to be an isolated problem and Firestone offered to send me a replacement LED anyway(they're always very helpful!)
the LC3 is compatible w/ 6922/6DJ8/7308 tubes, and of course w/ their ECC88/E88CC/E188CC/E288CC/6H23 counterparts as well...and there's no need to manually setup any "bias" setting, it's all automatic.
you can see an OPA2604 dual opamp but it's not in the audio path! it's here for "DC servo" only...so no evil DC offset makes it to your beloved headphones(I measured 0 mVDC on the HP out
)
I have to emphasize on the "Tokyo Volume control" pot, because it's really really nice to use! 20 steps, very slight "clicks", perfect stereo tracking, very handy and really great to use...10/10 from me: TKD Tokyo Ko-On Denpa volume controls
so it costs 415€ at the only authorized european reseller : Little Country III
it's 399€ here: Little Country III
and 330€($447) in the US(+shipping + 20% VAT customs import taxes): Little Country III
the latter link also explains how much the PSU side has been polished, and it's clearly audible! no hiss whatsoever, very thick analog sound...Firestone sure know how to make good sounding gear IMO.
I'm asking $OLD shipped(it's 3.5kg) within EEC Europe(Switzerland included) via priority insured express EMS(it comes w/ an online trackable parcel number), +5€ for non-EEC Europe/North Africa, +24€ for USA/Canada/Middle East/Africa, and +38€ for the rest of the world...I will declare a very low value on the customs declaration so you don't have to pay for ANY import taxes anyway
paypal or european wire bank transfer is fine, I'm also opened to trades. Thanks for looking
