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

Hello Tvad,

I use the Benz ACE M,like yours, on my Chenin. I found that the phono gain pot setting on mine at 1/3 max for each with the best results loaded at 1000 ohms and with the preamp gain togggle switch at low setting. I found this setting also as the one that gives me the same volume level as from my CD player source.

I am using Amperex 7308 and Tungsol 6100.

regards,

Abe
