Perreaux TC unit - Help Needed

Got one of those dude's myself. Its designed to go inline between the amp and preamp. It has a defeat switch on the front (which is engaged in the up position). It will also allow a signal to pass when it is truned off. In this position you can use the tone contols and the head phone outlet. Unless you have really maxed out the amp preamp combo it won't hurt your resolution much in the inline position. You can't listen to the headphone when its in the tape loop unless you have a volume control on your source. However, i don't listen to headphones and I put mine in the tape loop where I can just switch it on when I need it to correct some disc's which really need a lot of help for them to sound listenable. This unit also has a low and high frequency filter. The former will help you if you have a turntable arm/cartridge that is mildly mismatched and causes excessive woofer excursions (pumping). Enjoy...

To Sean and the other respondents of this thread. Many thanks for your help. Tried this unit both ways and works the best inserted between amp and preamp. Jury is still out on this unit. After about 30 days or so will give it a thumbs up or down. Did remove the top cover. It is impressively built with the tone controls directly connected to a mil spec circuit board. Parts used are exemplary with a very good build quality.

if you decide against the unit, i would be interested in purchasing. thanks, -s.
