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

Have a great time at Disney World Kgturner. Hopefully your new TOY will be on it's way to you soon. I waited 11 months for my Cortese!

I was wondering if these new amps are supposed to be superior to the Burgandy amp that Mich used to manufacture.

Baranyi,

I asked Mick the same thing. He says the new amps are better.

Baranyi- Put me down as another that asked Mick the same thing. He said the Burgandies absolutely won't handle Apogee's,but the new amps will. He seemed more impressed with the construction of the new amps(of course). Probably the Mondeuse to be sure. He wasn't really impressed with the idea of changing the Red umbilical out either,in his words;"con job". Just repeating what the man said.

Oh,BTW. Srajan over at 6 Moons just awarded the Cabernet Dual one of his "Best of 2006" awards. He remarks that it's;"The best he's heard yet". Way to go Mick(and helpers),well done!!!!!!!!!!

Just wish I could afford one. Oh well,someday.......
