for sale or trade
cayin a88t valve integrated and matching cdt -17 a valve cd player
both units are very highly regarded bits of kit loads of info and glowing reviews available on line , i have owned both for around 7 months which is a bit of a record for me and i sold some far more expensive exotic kit in favour of the cayin kit , build and sound quality is outstanding for the money
since owning , both have been upgraded by chevron audio and all the valves in both the player and amp have been swapped for quality nos , the previous owner also had the player upgraded with expensive burson omp amps , clock and power supply
looking for a change so happy to swap or trade for anything interesting , or looking to sell the amp for 700 and the player for 600
current uk retail for each is approx 2.4k [ cayin uk importer / dealer here on the wam ]
upgrades and valves cost approx 650 excluding the burson upgrades
will post pictures and full details of the upgrades and valve changes asap
no origanal boxes for either so pick up only or possible meet
