Al.M Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 For those looking to jump from bland mid fi setups and wanting to try a tube preamp you will be surprised how good something like this can be. Cheap, simple and effective. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gijo1977 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Is this the ‘basic version’ with the internal power supply? And how many tubes are involved with this pre? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Festooned Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 You can see the mains plug. You can be pretty sure the power supply is inside it! 8) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Festooned Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 (edited) Still, the number of tubes is a pertinent question. They came with and without the 6SN7 cathode follower board. 4 tubes without, 6 tubes with. Edited January 14, 2018 by treuben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gijo1977 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 How many hours are on the current tubes? And what were your favorites or recommendations for replacing the current ones, should they need it? My main concern is the line stage in the first instance.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Tubes are old but still working. they were replaced by Audiophile in Melbourne in 2003 to answer your questions about preferences, I have no idea really sorry.
