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

Hmmmmmm.....so if Mick dies or goes into some other business you are up the creek once he has your money and now he has new models. You know the old saying about "if it sounds too good to be true it probably is".

BWite, I feel your pain. If I had the previous version I would want the upgraded unit myself. But in reality, we are talking about progress here and it ain't never gonna stop. Actually I applaud Mick for continuing to push the envelope with his designs and trying to constantly improve them.

As the old saying goes, "Change or die".

Jsujo, wake up and smell the coffee. The Supratek that is advertised is not one of the units Mick was referring to in his post. Actually, he said the Syrah (advertised) was not affected by the changes!
