from Gorans HiFi Summary:
I bought this pre-amp together with the Thule Spirit PA-150B power amplifier and a Spirit Tuner. I used to connect them with XLR-cables and that was ok, but I´ve recently discovered that using solid core coaxials (RG62) makes the package really come alive. This is no nonsense! It truly makes the amplifier completly transparent. That in combination with high power makes this combination a really good choise. And then there is the looks, clean and simple lacking all of the gadgets you never use anyway. Black slightly curved front with one red LED display, one golden volume knob and one black input selector button and that is all there is :) Beatiful is the word I´m looking for! The remote has tone controlls and balance controll, all adjustable in five steps (+-2). That´s it I guess, it´s simply a solid product :)
PR 7500Skr $750
PA 11000Skr $1100
Tuner 4500Skr $450 Strengths:
Looks, Clean and sophisticated.
Transparant sound, doesn´t add or remove anything.
Enough power (PA=2x150Wrms in 8 Ohms). Weaknesses:
Some electrolytic capacitors dried out in both the pre-amp and the power-amp and gave way for noise and hum, still capable of reproducing music though. The problem occured probably because I left the power on for months using it as a radiator :)...
No other problems that I can think of. Similar Products Used:
