first sound preamp

When I worked at Salon 1 Audio,this was one of my favorites.Tube rolling is very easy-only two 6922s (Siemens or Amperex).Very open and airy,with good tonal saturation.Dual volume controls may take some time to get used to.All comments pertain to the Presence Deluxe.

A great sounding preamp. Which model are you referring to and exactly what's your question? Several people on Audiogon had or still use this preamp.

I love mine. Prescence Deluxe. Totally black background with an evenly presented musical presentation paired with a ISEM class A solid state amp and Dunlavy SC4a.

..in my opinion there aren't many better..mr go..the creator of the preamps..is a wonderful gentleman.one of the great features about the preamp is that each model is upgradeable to the next..for the most part..i recently had my 'paramount mk II' upgrade to a new level..'series 3...and the improvement is amazing...i agree with tpsonic regarding the siemens or amperex tubes..these are the best i have found also.i think you will love whichever model you get...
