Preamp Deal of the Century

If anyone is looking for a true "World Class" preamp at a very fair price..heed my advice. I just recieved a Supratek Syrah preamp that was hand built by Mick Maloney in Western Australia, and it is absolutely beautiful! This preamp is the best deal you will ever find. I would put it up against any preamp out there for both looks and sound. Price? $2500 for the Syrah (includes Killer Phono stage). Not into phono? Try the Chardonney line stage for $2100. Don't get me wrong, I am not associated with this company. I am just a very happy owner! This preamp is VERY dynamic, yet liquid. It conveys the sound of music better than any other preamp that I have ever heard! You can check out the Supratek website at www. cantech.net.au

Larry,

Still have not worked out the trip yet. Hope I can make it. I would have emailed but I wanted to have post number 1200!

Hi, I am new here and after reading most of the thread (I was convinced to get one an d had to stop to ask this question) what is the best way to contact Mick / Supratek for a Chenin/Syrah ? Thanks.

O.K. I spoke (or wrote too soon). I got excited. I found the site on A'Gon. My novice question: please explain difference between the "line stage version". Thanks.

Line stage means no phono section. While the line stage Suprateks are excellent preamps, IMHO, the phono stage is where they really shine.

Joe, I suspect there is a good reason why Mick made a change to the phono stage of the Syrah and left the line stage alone.
