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

.....it's been quiet here lately......everybody's been tube rolling or what?

enjoy the music!
I received my Cabernet yesterday. Even in the first two hours, I couldn't help but grinned and thought how wonderful this preamp is. I will reserve from going into details, but simply put it brings life to the music and exceeds all my expectations.
A question for Supratek owners who are also using Berning amps. At what settings do you set the amp for optimum sound. I have mine at normal and 12 o'clock for volume setting. At that level there's no noise or microphonics. I would like to turn the volume (amp) up more, but then it gets very noisy. The Berning manual cautioned about overloading the high level stages in the preamp. Am I running any risks by not turning the volume all the way up on the amp?
Nice to see some traffic here. I am in my fifth month, happily waiting on a Cabernet. I love reading and researching while I wait, all the details to follow.
