VTL 5.5 Series II Signature Linestage Preamplifier - Bring all reasonable offers!

The time has come, I am listing my VTL 5.5 Series II that I have owned since 2015. The previous owner purchased it in 2013. I have enjoyed this preamp immensely and do not know if I am doing the right thing. But, I have my eye on another preamp and want to explore. It is in excellent condition. I am included Mullard tubes that the previous owner included. The stock tubes are installed and I have used it with those installed. I probably put more hours on it this past year since I found my love for vinyl again. I did not log the hours, but she still sounds beautiful.
The previous owner modified the remote by removing the power-off button from the remote because he felt it
was way too easy to inadvertently depress and turn the power off. It never bothered me because I need to turn my other equipment on manually. You can either use something to depress the internal switch if you need to or I am sure that a new button can be installed.
This is a line stage preamp only and a phonostage could be installed by vtl if desired. Shipping will be included in the continental USA.
