Aric Audio Systems Unlimited Preamp

Here is a link to a review of a couple of Aric's products.

Aric and I worked out the details of a custom SE 2a3 tube amp that will use a oversized pwr supply and Electra Print 15watt outputs so I will be able to get 8 to 10 watts using the new production JJ 2a3-40 tube and also use regular 2a3 tubes at the normal 3.5 watts.
The JJ tube is capable of dissapating 40 watts and a normal 2a3 dissipates 25 watts.

There is some older reviews of the JJ tube if you google for them.

We came up with price slightly below $1800.00 with shipping and no tubes.Should be a very good sounding amp especially for the price.

I have a DIY WECO 91A clone, 2A3 with Electra Print output transformers. I run JJ 2A3-40s as well. I use it to drive my tweeters.

 I've always thought it was a nice amp, and the EPs and JJs both were nice upgrades. 

Hope you enjoy!

For the price point I would checkout Spearit Audio online based in MA. They are dealers in Conrad Johnson which are outstanding tube and SS products. The SPEARING owners is retiring and they have a lot of new and used gear for sale at good prices. A Classic tube preamp should be accessible. Great sound. Only issue for me is no remote.
