Zum Verkauf steht ein EAR Yoshino MC4.
Technisch einwandfrei und voll funktionsfähig
Optisch in perfektem Zustand, ohne Mängel oder Beschädigungen
Privatverkauf, daher keine Garantie, Gewährleistung oder Rücknahme.
At €450, this used EAR Yoshino MC4 is a stark bargain, sitting well below the typical used market where fair values hover around €1,200–€1,400. New units cost roughly €2,200–€2,300, making this listing nearly 80% off current retail and an exceptional entry point for a high-end step-up transformer.
The MC4 is revered for its Tim de Paravicini-designed circuitry, delivering four precise impedance settings (3, 6, 12, 40 ohms) and voltage gains up to 30x, unlocking low-output moving-coil cartridges with minimal noise and exceptional channel separation. Its chrome finish, wide frequency response (3Hz–100kHz), and robust hum rejection make it a timeless, reliable upgrade for serious analog setups—especially at this price.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
