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

Ouch, Grant! Did any of the speaker drivers get damaged?

Thanks a lot guys for you input; I have got it all figured out now.
All I have to do now is to place the order and wait patiently. I already have a good supply of NOS tubes from a headphone amp I had previously, including the Sylvania "bad boys" and metal base, Ken Rad, Tungsol round plate

Ouch is right. No damage that I can discern, thank goodness.

You were fortunate Grant. That volume surge you experienced is the equivalent of having your volume knob turned all the way up.
