Review 1 of 3

Price Paid:  $800.00 from Local Dealer

Summary:
Although I have not use a lot of preamp, this has got to be the best i have tried in my system so far. While the sound is not as clean as a solid state, it will give you a musical experience that can only cone from a good tube preamo. It has a lot if air , body, and presentation. This suits my listening style and really shows the forward presentation of my 8 watts 300B power amp.

Strengths:
Presentation and clarity
Build quality, choice parts

Weaknesses:
none for the price.

Similar Products Used:
Audion Silver Night
Sonic Frontier SFL2
Mark Levinson no. 38

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....
