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

Are Suprateks 'hard' on tubes? How many hours can you get on a strong set of 6sn7 tubes? A good Rectifier (metal base)? With the high cost of 350b tubes, what is its liftime as a regulator? Mick's info suggests 10,000 hours. Is this playing out in the field?

Tubes last an incredibly long time. I've had a Syrah for about 8 years and have gone through one rectifier and one set of 6SN7's.
