Pictures: (true photos are in the links)
1. Please see the link (which has photo) where I bought Aronov from Michael in NSW (he is a great seller). Russian Mullard tubes are not good. I have replaced with two NOS Amperex (Made in Holland) tubes and two brand new Electro Harmonix tubes. I still retain the boxes for four. These have improved the sound quality. The Aronov has no original box when I bought but I can provide a very good computer box. Hence no issue with shipping. The Aronov will generate quiet constant noise in your speakers. You will hear it only when being very close to the speakers. Trevor serviced this amp before and I spoke to him at such time because it was the first time I used tube amp. He said it was common and acceptable. If you have any concern, I suggest you visit to listen or you pm, email or call Trevor (he is a senior member here) in this regard. It is the first time I use tube but I like tube sound as I listen to country music.

2. Please scroll down to the middle of the topic see the link and photo when I first posted to sell Maia 3. At such time I had a VIC buyer to collect but as I love this amp so much I did not want to divorce it. It is very hard to find it here and I bought it from the UK. If you will buy it, you will see the name of the dealer on the original box.

3. I do not post the sale of Marantz 6005 CD as I do not have a photo. I will do that later. The last time you see this CD player sold here was from Molika.
4. Please read my feedback to know how careful I am when selling and packing to ship. I always dust and clean before packing. You will never see any dust or fingerprints. I clean them many times a week with a lint free cloth even when not using the system.
