Cello audio Palate or Suite still worth buying?

I have two Cello Audio Pallete preamps/equalizer one for each system ,in my main system I also have a Cello Encore preamp.I could not be without them.You can see my systems on Audiogon.Early versions of the Audio Pallete has limited inputs,later versions have more .The equalizer is easy to use and is fantastic.You can have Cello equipment upgraded and repaired by Cello Germany,expensive but very reliable and excellent quality.I have had an MBL 6010D premp in my main system for a few months and sold it,did not compare well with Cello.Please keep in mind I listen primarily to classical music ,and my system is rather complex.feel free to call me should you want more detail information.

I am using Suite, and have a 1Mohm on the side. Suite is a well balanced pre. Comparing to the current name branded pre on the market, it is still up front in sonic. Would not regret to get one!

I am using a Cello Pallete pre-amp , its over 20 years old .Compare with current pre-amp like Jeff Rowland Capri , Audio Research LS 17 , LS 27 , is the Pallete still sonic & resolution superior now ? The cello company is closed now , cannot get repair if got problem. Please give me some advise.

Vic803,
I have repaired one of my Cello preamps with Paul ...,he is at Viola Lab in Connecticut,that company has some of the staff from the old Cello company.In addition I have upgraded and modified one of my Cello Audio Palette preamps with Cello Germany,unfortunately Dr.Kleiber who was the owner is very ill and if alive is no longer active.However you may try to contact them.Their service was outstanding in terms of quality,however shipping to and from Germany is difficult and they were quite expensive.I do have two Audio Palettes they are a major improvement over the Palette preamp.I am willing to part with one of them.feel free tto contact me.

Take your Cello Palette EQ to the next level. That's what I did. Millennia Music & Media Systems NSEQ4. Sonically the NSEQ-4 blows the Cello away and has much more frequency control/flexibility.
