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

I just read a review on the Canadian Pasiphae that works through attenuation of the transformer. Has anyone mentioned the Blowtorch?

I have been in a state of bliss since my Sauvignon clocked up 10 hours.
Out of the box I was happy with it, but in a short time, the bird has taken flight, with more to come with time and some tube rolling.
As the key that unlocked the door to a whole new level of system performance I couldn't be happier.
As a friend who came over to listen last night said, "Phenomenal!".

Hi All,
Mick wrote :"the pre is built, have to do the power supply"
Would like to know your opinion, have i to check my emails from Australia every day ( or hours!) or better don't get deceived as there is still a long waiting?
Pre is Cortese.

Thanks for this great forum

It could still be another month till you get the preamp. After he finishes everything Mick will burn-in the preamp for almost a week before sending it to you. During this time Mick may also make adjustments to the pre if the sound isn't quiet to his liking. Patience young Alma, patience.
