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

Tom,

I have a Morey James PC (not sure if it is a 1.5), but I would be willing to sell it (and I can check to see what the model is). I think it is a 6 ft cord.

Hi Tom - got your email. Glad you like the MJ 1.5 - I told you it was good!! Unfortunately, there aren't many of them that I know of. When I first "announced" that cord, only a few people purchased it. You might email Moray James at: morayj1@juno.com and ask him if he can make you one if the wire is still available. I know he sells the MJ PWR2.5's which were okay but not as good as the 1.5 on the Supratek.

Tell Moray you have a Supratek and he'll know exactly what you want - keep in mind, he is always working on new stuff so... maybe there is a 3.5 or something even better to try.

I have a problem. My 5 year old kicked a soccerball that hit the power/on off button on my PS Audio 300 which I had the Chardonney plugged into. When I turned it back on, the tube preamp produce this load hum through one of the speakers. I have not figured out how to get rid of it. I can turn the dial on the back of the unit to minimize it, but it is still there. Before this happened, it was dead quiet. Any insight would be apprecieated. Thanks

Hi All,
I got "the email", the one that tells you that your waiting is over. I'm feeling a bit excited...
Is there something I should ask now to Mick for my Cortese, also considering that I live in Italy, not so close?
Thanks
