PLINIUS CD-LAD High-End Preamplifier, solid state, FAULTY, for parts or repair

Description: Hello. Cleaning up again. Here is for sale one true Audiophile High-End solid state line level preamplifier made by High-End electronic company based in New Zealand. It was specifically designed for the Digital front end systems. It has three line level inputs(No phono)- two RCA and one(CD input) with both RCA and Balanced XLR connections(you should use only one of your choice at any given time). There are three outputs- two RCA and one Balanced XLR. Front panel has a display and set of controls including Volume and Source,Mute,Menu and Phase selections. Unit comes with rare and VERY heavy remote control made out of solid billet of aluminum (uses 2 AAA batteries which are not included for safety purposes). Unit is for 120V operation and will come with standard power cord.I am the second owner and as such do not have original box or manual,but will pack safely for shipping. Cosmetics are extremely good. Very nice clean unit. All lights and display work as they should. Remote control works well. Now for the part why is it for sale as for Parts. The unit is faulty. I bought it that way with the hopes to restore,but I simply have no time to do it. Besides, I have plenty of other preamps at the moment. Unit powers up and yes, you can get the signal thru;however, unit constantly produces high frequency hiss and some weird oscillating sound constantly present and is loud enough that you can hear it above the music. This preamp needs attention of a technician, which I am not. I took a picture of the insides but do not see any burned out or otherwise visually defective elements anywhere on the board. I am selling it STRICTLY AS IS for restoration or repair. There is going to be ABSOLUTELY no returns on this item. Local pick up welcome.
