Our Thoughts RADAR AI

This looks like a strong deal at £3,271. A comparable UK pre-owned example has been offered at £3,799, while the PH 9.0XT retailed around £5,250, so this sits comfortably below the usual used ask rather than merely tracking it.

The XT is the desirable, fully upgraded version, combining tube rectification with a highly adjustable MM/MC stage and both RCA and XLR outputs. It is well regarded for natural tone, convincing space, strong dynamics and unusually good bass authority without losing detail. At this money, it is a serious buying opportunity, assuming the external power supply, umbilical, correct tubes and original packaging are included. Check tube age and confirm the unit is genuinely the XT specification, but those are sensible checks rather than reasons to hold back.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About ModWright Instruments

ModWright Instruments is an American hi-fi brand founded in 2000 by Dan Wright, who remains the company’s founder and chief designer. The company is based in Amboy, Washington, and began as a modification outfit for digital audio products before evolving into a full component manufacturer.

Today, ModWright is best known for high-end tube and hybrid electronics, especially preamplifiers, phono stages, power amplifiers, headphone amplifiers, and DACs. Its product line also includes some solid-state amplification, but the brand’s identity is rooted in analog-friendly, meticulously voiced components rather than loudspeakers, turntables, or accessories.

In the market, ModWright sits firmly in the high-end, niche-boutique segment. Its reputation is built on handcrafted build quality, a strong tube-audio aesthetic, and a “musical” presentation that appeals to experienced listeners looking for refinement and character rather than mass-market convenience.
