Here’s a picture I took of Danny’s setup when I visited in March. You’ll see Danny’s Dodd preamp there.
Kinda hard to "demo" GR Research NX-Treme speakers because they are so big. These are setup in a large room he’s remodeling. I think they may be building a new room in his shop. It’s worth flying into Dallas and renting a car to hear this stuff. Danny and Hobbs don’t mind at all when people visit - just give them a call.
The sound is completely effortless, ultrafast, and the soundstage is about 100’ deep.
Dodd Audio Preamp
Hello all. I have an opportunity to purchase a custom built Dodd Audio Preamp. This preamp was custom and was one of the last he built so I'm guessing it was built around 2015. I'm not very familiar with battery operated preamps but what I do know is that they have a very low noise floor. I also know that there are some folks on here that have or have had one of Garry's preamps. If this is you please let me know what you think. Some of the questions that I would like to have answered is has technology improved on AC preamps that the noise floor is as low as a battery preamp? Does the battery in preamps act like large power capacitors in an AC preamp? One of the preamps I was looking at is the Spatial Audio Raven for comparison.
