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

Allanblissett, thanks for sharing the tip. I'll check my 6NS7's and let you know what happens.
Powers,
in the price range you ask there is a magnificient CD player: the CEC 51TLXR. Many revievers have it as their personal CD player. It has a last generation DAC and you can use it as a transport only if you want to experiment with outboard DACs. There are several reviews out there, check Stereo Times.
I purchased the upgraded umbilical cord from Brad at Revelation Audio Lab for my Chardonay. The cord totally transformed my Chardonay. I was shocked listening to the level of changes. The best $169 ever spent.
Just curious...anybody ever do an A-B between a Syrah/Chenin/Cortese and a Hovland HP-100 with MC? How did the Supratek stack up?
