The new Quicksilver Full Preamp achieves maximum sound quality with minimal signal paths, minimal switching, and no transistors, regulators or circuit boards. Its massive power supply is housed in a subchassis within the main preamp allowing tremendous dynamic range and transient attack without the limitations of a separate power supply. The output impedance is so low that it will drive a 30 ohm load without the use of solid state devices or transformers. the internal phono stage provides analog enthusiasts state-of-the-art disc playback from a circuit that uses both active and passive RIAA eq.

Price $3900.
