Dynavector L-200 Pre amplifier
A Superb sounding Pre-amplifier from Dynavector. This was recently traded in. Item is in excellent condition and in perfect working order.Be quick! These don’t come up for sale second hand very often.
Dynavector Te Kaitora Rua Low Output Cartridge
The original Te Kaitora cartridge was the result of collaboration between Dynavector Japan and Dynavector New Zealand. The Te Kaitora allowed analogue enthusiasts to embark on a voyage of discovery to the outer limits of vinyl reproduction.
The improved Te Kaitora Rua continues the journey by incorporating many of the newest features of its Dynavector stable-mates, the XV-1s and XX-2. The Te Kaitora Rua has even managed to improve on the original’s silk-like treble and openness.

Dynavector DV-XX2 mkII Low Output Cartridge
The DV XX-1 was the first cartridge to feature a “magnetic flux damper” (patent) and softened magnetism” (patent) processes that reject the magnetic fluctuation that is detrimental to a moving coil cartridges performance. The The DV XX-2 MKII retains the benefit of the flux damper but features the Alinco-5 magnet and the similar rigid construction to the Te Kaitora Rua.

Alnico magnets exhibit high magnetic flux density combining with a low coercive therefore magnetic resistance is lower than other magnetic types such as rare earth and ferrite, providing the exceptional stability of the XX-2 MKII output voltage. There is also the additional advantage of low magnetic and electrical resistance contributing to a discernable improvement in sound quality.

Dynavector DV-17D3 Low Output Cartridge
The main change to the new Dynavector 17D3 is an improvement in the design of the front yoke. This appears, on the surface, to be a small difference yet contributes to a greatly improved overall performance justifying a model number change. The new yoke improves focus in the magnetic circuit and in combination with the flux damping mechanism and softened magnetism (patent) gives accurate sonic qualities leading to a very natural sound. The change has also enabled a useful increase in output to 0.3mV.

The Dynavector Karat is notable for its gemstone cantilever. This 1.7mm long by 0.25mm diameter solid diamond cantilever has its 0.06 square mm stylus mounting hole precision cut by laser. The Micro Ridge Stylus of 0.06 square mm nude diamond is securely and accurately bonded to the cantilever.
The armature of 0.9mm square and 0.4mm thick is much smaller than normal, upon which are wound 60 turns per channel of 12 micron fine wire. 17D3 Karat Diamond is the first cartridge built using 'dispersion' theory. Its Micro-Ridge stylus and very short (1.7mm) solid diamond cantilever give a huge reduction in 'frequency dispersion', unmatched dynamics and a high frequency extension all the way up to 100kHz. The latest patented magnet circuit design increases the output to 0.3mV with crystal clear mid-range and treble even during the largest symphonic crescendos.

Dynavector DV-10X5 High Output Cartridge
The Dynavector 10X series High Output Moving Coil cartridge debuted in 1978 winning the prestigious Design and Engineering Award at the Chicago CES in both 1978 and 1981. The 10X series cartridges are also widely accepted as the benchmark in High Output moving coil cartridge at this price point and beyond.

Dynavector L-300 Pre amplifier
The Dynavector L-300 is a 2-channel ( stereo ) line level preamplifier that provides seven audio inputs ( including an optional Phono input ), three audio outputs and a tape/record output.
There is also provision for a digital input and output if at some future date a digital module is released. A communications port is also included that can be implemented in the future as required.
This unit is ex dem (current spec0 and in excellent condition
More Details
The L-300 features unique, highly linear, amplifier stages that automatically adapt to the volume level to maximise linearity and minimise noise and distortion. The L-300 has no mechanical switches or moving parts in the signal chain. Source selection is accomplished by using precision electronic switches that eliminate all the problems found with mechanical switching devices including relays. The L-300’s electronic switches cannot wear out, the switch action is always perfect, they cannot corrode or change, they do not generate electrical noise, are unaffected by vibration and they operate silently. The electronic volume control offers precise gain matching between the channels over the whole volume range. You can be assured that the performance of your L-300 will be as perfect in 10 years as on the day you purchased it.
The output stage has very low output impedance, wide bandwidth and high current delivery for driving difficult loads right across the whole frequency range. This overcomes many of the problems with interconnect cables and component matching, allowing the L-300 to be used with a wide range of cables and power amplifiers.
The latest surface mount technology, combined with advanced multi-layer printed circuit boards that have increased thickness pure Australian copper tracks, provide maximum performance and reliability. The printed circuit board has a full analogue ground plane to ensure freedom from noise and virtual silence even at high volume levels. No adjustment or calibration is required and the only maintenance necessary is occasional dusting/cleaning.
The L-300 is deliberately simple and intuitive to use, while it offers true audiophile performance, there are only two control knobs so anyone can use it. The remote control handset is also simple and practical. There are only 5 buttons and it fits in the hand only one way round. Therefore you can find the correct buttons without looking at it.
The L-300 combines the highest audiophile performance with a simple functional design and appearance that will serve you and your music faithfully for many years.
