For your consideration, we have a fine example of a vintage Perreaux 3000B Mosfet Amplifier. Cosmetically the unit has some scuffs and scratches and a blemish on the faceplate to the right of the word Amplifier. Overall though the unit presents itself very well. The sides, faceplate and handles are all made of thick aluminum stock. Inside the unit looks very clean. The only modifications that we see are the RCA jacks that were installed for the previous owner, and we installed a new power cord. The power switch and the stereo/mono switches were cleaned. We ran the amp on our bench for a few hours and then moved it into one of our house systems and ran it for another two days, and it performed as it should.
The unit will be packed using a heavy duty box, polystyrene and or instapak. The box will be strapped for added protection.
