Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier

Many of the new pieces in the 2.2 I had installed in my 2.0n thanx to Pat.I'm hopeful that at some point I will have the luxury of being able to compare the two.I can't say enough positive things about the Clarity caps,they definitely provide an uptick in performance.

Markwattkiss,
I communicated regularly with Pat(Rx8man) while he was getting his TP2.0n upgraded with the Claritycaps and new transformer in the power supply. I'm not sure if Joseph replaced the key resistors in the signal path with the new Vishays in his(your) unit. I think I might give Joseph a call to see if he'll send me the Vishays so that I can put them in myself. I'm sure he'd rather do it himself, though. (o: Rhyno, I look forward to hearing your impressions of the differences between the 2.0 and new 2.2 preamps. Please keep us posted.

Thanks Mark and Sherod, for the after thoughts about me.

Mark's unit (the one I sold him) had nearly all future (at the time) and current parts, many of these were my wild ideas at the time.

I knew what the preamp needed for a bigger and better sound, which it definately has, Mark can attest to that, he really has a quite special pre.

Nice to see this thread is still alive and hasn't been removed again by the powers-that-be.

Take care guys.

Hi rhyno,
The ad for the new 2.2 states,

• The following are available as an option with the TP 2.2cv and 2.2cvB:
A premium, stepped volume control for a smoother feeling pot, discrete steps, and even less variation between channel output than before.

Do you know if this is a true stepped attenuator or a potentiometer with detents and, if a stepped attenuator, by which manufacturer?
