    Description

    Cleaned, tested, and in good condition.
    I’ve had this preamp for decades and it’s finally time to let it go.
    It has been kept in climate controlled storage in my home when not in use.
    All of the control knobs are still very responsive and there is minor wear on the faceplate and case top. (Can be seen in pictures).
    Comes with 3, unique owner’s manuals.
    Serial No. #1210 with mismatched SN on box (#1667). When originally purchased, the stereo shop had this as a display model and sold it to me with this box.
    As this is a 30-year-old piece of equipment I will not be offering refunds, but if there’s any problem that arises upon delivery please contact me.
    Message me with any questions!

    From stereophile.com:
    “The Mod Squad Line Drive System Control Center is a purely passive stereo switching unit with a volume and balance control, five line inputs, and additional facilities for two tape decks. It allows the audiophile to replace a preamp, with its active gain stages—and resulting coloration—with a device that introduces no distortion or coloration other than that in the wiring, switches, and controls.
    Construction is also of very high quality, even for a 0 device. Tiffany jacks are used selectively for two pairs of inputs and one pair of output jacks. The unit uses Lorlin selector switches. Wonder Wire, Wonder Solder, and Teflon-insulated LC/OFC wiring. Construction is on the battleship side, and the styling and feel are excellent.”
