A few years ago I owned Danny’s Super V loudspeakers. These included the two woofer version of the OB subs. Although the coaxial driver was not ready for prime time, it was some of the best lower frequencies I’ve ever heard.
Dodd Audio Preamp
Hello all. I have an opportunity to purchase a custom built Dodd Audio Preamp. This preamp was custom and was one of the last he built so I'm guessing it was built around 2015. I'm not very familiar with battery operated preamps but what I do know is that they have a very low noise floor. I also know that there are some folks on here that have or have had one of Garry's preamps. If this is you please let me know what you think. Some of the questions that I would like to have answered is has technology improved on AC preamps that the noise floor is as low as a battery preamp? Does the battery in preamps act like large power capacitors in an AC preamp? One of the preamps I was looking at is the Spatial Audio Raven for comparison.

Excellent @jim2! By the way people, Danny’s system includes a pair of the GR Research/Rythmik Audio Servo-Feedback OB/Dipole Subs (the 3 woofer version). I regularly see guys stating as fact that OB subs aren’t capable of producing deep bass. Obviously none of them have heard the GRR/Rythmik Sub. If I ever again make it out to Austin, I’m stopping at Danny’s place to hear his system.

Here’s a picture I took of Danny’s setup when I visited in March. You’ll see Danny’s Dodd preamp there. | |
