Juicy Music Preamps

I had the Peach in my system for a week about 10 months ago during a "tour" it made around the country. I found it to be an excellent preamp, very quiet, just a tad warmer than the Modwright 9.0SE if I remember correctly. Construction, parts selection and layout were all excellent. It looks much better in person than pictures would lead you to believe and the look actually really grew on me during the time that I had it. One feature I especially liked was the seperate gain and volume controls... you really need to try it in your system to see how it suits your tastes!

here's a review of the blueberry.

Hey Hack....you may not think the name is serious enough, but as an owner of the BB Xtreme, I can tell you that the sound sure is! High-end performance at real world prices. Rather than re-type all my comments here, if you are interested you can see them on audiocircle.com. Just do a search on my handle "toobluvr". A search on "blueberry" "peach" or "juicymusic" will yield other comments.
Enjoy!

One further note. To learn more about JuicyMusic products, and direct user experiences, hop on over to the Klipsch forum. There are tons of comments/reviews/opinions over there......almost all of them wildly enthusiastic.

For example:
search on "blueberry" returns 14 pages of posts
search on "peach" returns 16 pages
search on "juicymusic" returns 1 page
search on "juicy music" returns 5 pages

Having used a Blueberry since this past April I could not be happier.

At the time i was shopping for a Phono Pre and liked the sound of my Sota/Benz combo through the BB. For the price of a good Phono stage I got a nice preamp thrown in.

After a couple of months of use I sent mine back to Mark for the "extreme" upgrade. The only mod I have done since is add a couple of tube dampers.

Sure there are better preamps but be prepared to pay some serious money
