Preamp Deal of the Century

If anyone is looking for a true "World Class" preamp at a very fair price..heed my advice. I just recieved a Supratek Syrah preamp that was hand built by Mick Maloney in Western Australia, and it is absolutely beautiful! This preamp is the best deal you will ever find. I would put it up against any preamp out there for both looks and sound. Price? $2500 for the Syrah (includes Killer Phono stage). Not into phono? Try the Chardonney line stage for $2100. Don't get me wrong, I am not associated with this company. I am just a very happy owner! This preamp is VERY dynamic, yet liquid. It conveys the sound of music better than any other preamp that I have ever heard! You can check out the Supratek website at www. cantech.net.au

Tom,

I suggest that you get Mick to insure the shipment. It seems to be his practice not to insure. I had to ask him to insure.

My advice is that under no circumstances should you let him ship without insurance, regardless of what he says.

Thanks Wc65mustang,

I am sorry. I did not see your post letting me know your shipping cost. Thanks also for the tip about giving Mick my social security number to avoid custom delays

I am really excited about getting the Cortese. It has been a long wait! But I know it will be worth it. This brings back memories of recieving my Syrah.
