Placette is the one company that has a remote unit that does not inorduce distortion. I have the Placette Active line stage and it is the best preamp I have "not" heard under $10K. --Lorne

Lorne is telling no fib, the best NOT heard preamp active or passive, outstanding transparencey. Extended top to bottom, hard to believe its a passive. Only 1400 retail, a bargin for what it doesn't do to the signal. One user sold his Cat and now uses this little passive.
