LECSON AP1 Power Amplifier and AC1 Pre-Amp, hi-fi quad 33/303 braun dieter rams

About the Item

Lecson AP1 Power Amplifier and AC1 Pre-Amplifier Designed 1972 by Allen Boothroyd, this design won the 1974 Design Council Award. Good condition, fully working and ready to enjoy - just back from a full check-over and service by our excellent audio technician. Includes pre- to power amp connection cable. Please let us know if additional connection cables needed, eg. for connecting tablets/ phones /laptops/ turntables, etc. and we can advise. Adjustable voltage 120 or 240 V, for use in different countries. Currently fitted with a UK plug. Cosmetic: Overall very good cosmetic condition. The power amp is about as good as it could be. The pre-amp is overall very good with a few minor points worth noting: there is a light scratch to the top, not always noticable, depends on the light/direction; some wear to the paint of a few of the coloured parts of the control switches - could probalby be re-coloured, but we will leave this to the buyer to decide; some light lifting in one of the corners of the top acrylic panel - as you probably know, these were quite lightly fixed together in places. This could be re-attached with a bit of careful planning, but we feel does not really distract from the overall excellent impression of the unit. Technical: Working perfectly. Fully checked, tested and serviced.
