RE: Harmon Kardon Citation 23? Still desired?

Posted by kff on September 30, 2016 at 19:39:23:
I have a couple 23s along with a few other tuners.

Like the looks of the Luxman T-110 and have a couple, one needs a new home soon, other sits with the C-1000 for that family portrait.
Got a couple Yamahas, TX-1000 that sounds great and is in the main rig even though other units look good. Got a T-7 I refurbed and loaned to a friend. The TX is way better.
The two 23s, one needs a new home but I have to fix the display lamp first. The other is the main unit in the bedroom system, pulls in everything. Anything marginal and I hit that button to fine tune and it brings in that college station over in New Jersey just fine.

I got the whole stack or 22, 23, 25 cheap and have that doing receiver duty upstairs. Good gear but the build quality is iffy. Might need some soldering redone. Last of the Citation before Harman Int'l bought Mark Levinson. Can't have the public buying HK and not buying ML.

I like it but the 23 is not a pretty tuner. That whole stack is just not good looking gear but 200wpc sounding good and lots of flexibility in the preamp...OK, I didn't pay much and it was in great shape with manuals.
