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

If there is anyone out there in the USA that has bought a Cortese recently, can you tell me how much the shipping and customs fees were?

Thanks,

Tom

Tom I think my Grange was $325 give or take a few dollars for shipping, insurance and customs. Make sure you give Mick (in case he forgets to ask but that's doubtful) your social security number. It goes through customs much faster with it.
When do you expect delivery?

Tom,

I suggest that you get Mick to insure the shipment. It seems to be his practice not to insure. I had to ask him to insure.

My advice is that under no circumstances should you let him ship without insurance, regardless of what he says.
