Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier

I am also just ready to jump on the upgrades, but unless discounted I will have to wait some more and I hate waiting for the treasure that comes from AH. My business is off during the recession and two kids will be in college soon.

Just a reminder to new as well as current AH preamp owners that the AH preamp does indeed invert phase and simply reversing your speaker cable polarity corrects this issue.

Hi guys,I just acquired a second Audio Horizons TP 2.0n from one of the club members who will remain anonymous at this time.This particular unit, in addition to the install of Clarity caps also has the larger transformer,power supply and a Furtech pc plug.Other tweaks engineered into this particular unit make up what I believe has been called harmonic realignment.The quad tube complement of Siemens CCa's is the same employed in my original AH so no changes there.
I'm now on day 3 now and I can tell you that the word floated by Sherod in descrbing the sound as "relaxed" is on point.
Bass is deeper and more well defined and there is that extra level of detail which provides a deeper richer musical experience.Those are my original impressions I will post additional comments after more listening sessions.And for those of you wondering what happened to my original 2.0, it was sold to a fellow Canadian who has been following this thread for awhile.He's replacing a Bryston BP-20,I think he's in for a pleasant suprise.

Markwatkiss,

Thanks for the update. Meanwhile, I continue to listen to iterations of Joseph's SET power amp - and they continue to improve. I understand that within the next few weeks I will listen to a SET power amp with a different tube complement and more power. I'm looking forward to the audition even though I haven't felt any loss of SPL from the lower watt SET.

As Nelson Pass has memorialized in his "First Watt" amplifier series, almost all of what we will ever want to hear is delivered in the first few watts.

Hey Mark! I'm glad to see that you found a deal on an upgraded 2.0 model. Enjoy the music. By the way. Has anyone spoken with Victor lately? He was to post upgrade and update information a while back and he has disappeared from this thread. I hope he's all right.
