Selling my Millennia Twincom TCL-2 — one of the cleanest and most versatile stereo optical compressors ever made. This unit has just been fully serviced and upgraded, and is in top working condition.
Upgrades & Service (October 2025):
- All 6 tubes replaced with premium Tung-Sol matched sets
- Matched quad 12AY7
- Matched pair 12AX7
- VU meter lights replaced with original parts
- All pots & contacts cleaned (smooth, noise-free operation)
- Output knobs upgraded with rubber dampening rings for a smoother, “creamy” feel
The TCL-2 gives you two complete signal paths — tube or JFET solid-state, switchable on the front panel.
The tube path gives that warm, musical, silky tone without being muddy, and the J-FET path offers the ultra-clean transparency Millennia is famous for. Both are pure Class A, transformerless, and extremely quiet.
Why this unit is special:
- True high-end optical mastering compressor
- Only one active stage in the audio path
- Ratios from 1.4:1 to 30:1
- Attack 2–100 ms, Release 100 ms – 3 s
- Switchable VU / GR metering
- Built with premium components (gold relays, Mogami cabling, etc.)
- Handbuilt in Northern California
Fully tested, sounds incredible, and ready to drop into any mastering or recording chain.
Shipping / Pickup
Because of the delicate tube upgrade and the overall value of the unit, I prefer local pickup with testing.
You're welcome to come by my studio, plug it in, and test it on your own material so you know exactly what you're getting.
If you're not local, insured shipping is possible, and we can also arrange a video demo or live call beforehand.
Please note: due to the tubes and the fragile high-end construction, I cannot accept returns.
