This is a vintage PT6-V Magnecord Microphone Preamp / Front End for a Magnecorder Reel to Reel. This version of the PT6 series is the one to have!
It is very easy to have a clean signal path from the input transformer, thru the tubes, to the output transformer.
The bias circuit was located on the transport unit instead of the preamp section, so you don't have to remove that. It does not have an onboard power amplifier and speaker like the other PT6 units. The recording EQ passive module (the transformer looking can in the very center) is socket mounted, so that is easily removed and bypassed.
It features a TRIAD output transformer, and an ADC input transformer.
The tube compliment is: Stage 1 - 12ax7, Stage 2 - 12au7, Rectifier - 6X4
I brought it up slowly over a 3 hour period on a variac. It will need to be gone through and recapped. If you are tech savvy, and enjoy bringing gear back to life, this will be a worthwhile project. I found a schematic, and I have some other notes which I can forward to you.
I am selling it a lower price to account for it needing refurbishment. The needed capacitors, and a new grounded cord should cost less than $40.
Shipping will include insurance, and signature confirmation.
