Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier

Sabai...does your 2.3 come with Joseph's new tubed power supply. If not it is worth contacting him about it. It made a huge improvement in my unit. Much improved staging and dimensionality. It is very organic sounding now where it had been a touch on the clinical side previously. IMO well worth the 1k for this mod.

Wow...I didn't know that Joseph now offered a tube power supply for the preamp. I might have to look into this. Has anyone tried Joseph's new Reference Platinum "More than a fuse"? I recently replaced a silver Hifi-tuning fuse with this new AH fuse in my TP 2.0n and the sound improved immensely...well worth the price. Joseph offers a couple of discounts to current AH preamp owners and if you post an impression of the fuse.

Sherod,

Yes I have the new fuse as well. Nice subtle improvement for sure. I also sprung for two for my 3.1 DAC.

I would contact Victor if you do have interest in the tubed power supply. He can most certainly give you quite a bit of information about its merits. I have had mine since last March and it has really transformed this preamp from very good to outstanding.

Scifi,

Is this an external power supply? I have the 2.3 with all the trimmings that are advertised on Joseph's site but I don't recall reading about this specifically.

Sherod,

What were the improvements with this new fuse?

Sabai,

No it is internal and replaces the current internal power supply which is on the left side of the unit as you face the front. It uses one tube. It really made a very special improvement in the unit as I wrote about in a previous post.

Contact Victor Comerchero, spokesperson for AH, for more details. He will not steer you wrong.

I don't think it is advertised as an upgrade on his website, but I learned about it from Victor in email conversation.
