Please, DON'T touch that Sony!

Fellow AKers,

I see a decent Sony pre-amp (TA-2000F) on eBay that I've always wanted. Every time I see one YB2 or Lefty or some other AKer grabs it.

I've put in a fair bid for this one and plan on it matching my ST-5000F with a new custom case.

Of course, if anyone else REALLY NEEDS it, they can bid too, just don't expect a bargain.

Jeez, it looks like there is already more than one very interested party.

Good luck. I am not, nor will I be, in the hunt.

I promise I won't go after it. But if you want the best possible odds, it's best to keep quiet about anything you see and want. When you announce it like this, you bring attention to it and could draw interest from a possible 'competitor' who might otherwise have not seen it.

DL-I don't want it, I don't need it. But I better get it before someone else does
 
Even if the fellow AKers, named above, withhold their bids, you have to contend with all the lurkers who have been alerted to the item in question.

If I may suggest, next time, you might want to send your requests out via pm, to all the usual suspects. Don't forget that people Google items on eBay in which they are interested, and AK usually pops up quite high in the list of results.

Good luck, anyway.
 
Well, I do know the Sony fans around here. I appreciate the response I've gotten here - thanks guys. I hope I've made a net contribution to the information exhanges here and hope this favor is not too much to ask.

If someone was interested and NOT on AK they would have found it anyway.

My bid was market and maybe a bit above. Again, if someone else REALLY wants, I can be outbid and that's only fair to the seller.

And Glenn does like to have two of every cool thing....
 
just curious, is it a good preamp? not interested at this time, into tubes for the time. but always curious about the attributes.

regards, j garcia
 
Am surprised how poor the spec's are this particular preamp. However, they were designed/built prior to the 'spec's wars' of the mid-70s. I'll give a report on mine by the end of the summer (time -where does it go?).
