Can anyone estimate how much a like new continental v5 should sell for (just less than an hour of testing use and put in storage), they're like scrubbed from the internet, I don't know if that's a good or bad thing.

Hi Pete, it is probably a good thing... I would not part with mine at all so I guess those brave enough to buy at the time are doing the same.
It's a great piece of equipment, always up to the task, does not matter what you connect it to.
It's even excellent driving the controversial Focal Elegia, better than my other desk amp, the remarkable Violectric V280.
I am not surprised nobody answered your question give it a chance one more time...

I’ve had mine for a few weeks. It’s amazing. I need more time with it.

Do I have Pete’s? I was happy with the price and fantastic condition.

I am not surprised to hear that, enjoy it

Yeah, when I was testing it when I was getting a bunch of gear to sell I kind of noticed it's quite nice, not sure if I will sell, I'm not as desperate for cash as I was recently.

Also, because of the scarcity and less than 2 hours or so usage, I know it it has value, its more sophisticated than my mojo, more stackable and no goofy lights, which I will probably sell even though I like it too, I just use a red and a cobalt dragonfly now, I'm too lazy to charge dacs ;/

if I do sell the CV5 I'll post here before ebay, because otherwise it will just be somebody trying to lowball who doesn't understand audio, although I barely do

Wasn't mine, happy you're enjoying it.

I don't think so.

Took a picture inside of CV5.
I was looking for a battery replacement, but this a 2 packs combine into one....

An excellent partner for the Cv5 : Hiby R3 Pro. Very competent DAC implementation, perfect size and coherent visual design between the two.

My favorite winter kit. Treat for the ears and warmth for the hands!

Hey all! I have a C5. Did every C5 ship with the Philips 6111 tube or did some ship with the 6832? Is there a way of knowing without opening up the case?
Also does anyone know if 6111WA for the CDM will work in the C5? Or is 6832 clearly the replacement path... Thank you!

All tubes for ALO with Black color board can be used with CDM or CV5.
