Has anyone heard the new North American products preamp and amp?


The new versions are called X-10s and the amp is on its third version or Mark III. This truly provides holograph imagine unlike anything I've heard before. On symphonic orchestras, one can hear the first violins. I have never heard an amp sound this precise.

In reality, I doubt if any amplifier can rival it. I certainly have never heard any that do so. Every album is so involving.

The preamp has yet to get a remote but is nevertheless, quite striking.

hi ddraudt ,
are you suggesting this H-Cat amp excel in all areas of music? did you find any lacking which you may had heard compared with other amps?
 i'm seriously considering it because Roger seems to know the correlation between amplitude & time, phase in signal propagation. These are fundamentals of P.R.A.T in music which i'm more concern than timbre, distortions ect..
Thanks for any input! 
Hi Philip, 
I can say that I have never heard any amp as good as the MK III.
(nearly 40 years in audio).
So far it seems as if the timber balance realism and timing or spot on.
Although Not fully broken in yet, the clarity, musicality, and amazing soundstage has me mesmerized in front of my system 12 hours a day lately.  The amp is reported to have a 3 week break in at least but it is already performing in ways I could not have imagined possible. Most 3 diminutional sound envelope ever.
Dare I say, AN ABSOLUTE STEAL at this price, and risk a run on these amps? Last time I checked, there was a wait time for the amp.
I felt like there was no risk in buying one because I know people waiting to get one. Now that I hear it I know why no one has sold theirs.
I hear that Roger is working 7 days a week to get these out while continuing to work on recording studio components with Mk III technology.
 I think you are correct about this amp and PRAT. SO far it excels there.
Cheers D

philipwu, I'm glad you tried the MkIII amp. I would strongly recommend that you also get the preamp, although presently it is being done on old chassis. I got the X-10 preamp first and compared it with my old X-9 version. The X-10 is clearly better. I had it when I got the X-10 MkIII amp. I did have my old X-9 amp with which to compare the X-10 MkIII. That was an eye opening experience.

I don't post much here any longer given the antics of Mapman and Geoffkait. I have long been a proponent of Roger Paul's electronic since about the time that Anna Logg gave the preamp a "Golden Ear Award" in The Absolute Sound where in the next Recommended Products, the H-cat wasn't mentioned. I think this bespeaks the influence of advertisers.

I have repeatedly been surprised that Roger's stuff has not taken off, but I was very happy that I had both a preamp and amp around to merely have upgraded. I know at least three guys in China with the preamp and maybe the amps and have been seeking them to tell them of the new products.
Philip, I was re reading xaviercg's post from page one before the troll attack. Now that I have the amp with a few hundred hours on it I can say that I agree with his assessment.
I look forward to your report after 200 hours...(if)..
Cheers D

Roger gave me local dealer (~100 miles away) contact to demo  H-Cat amp and pre.  Contacted dealer several months ago and he said in process of renovating sound room, should take 2 weeks but never got back to me.    Oh Well!
