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

Hello,

Are any of you using Synergistic IC's with active shielding?

I get a hum if I use them on the output section going to the
amps (Nagra VPA, 50 watt, Class A). If I disconnect the shield, the buzz is diminished yet not completely removed.

Thanks for your thoughts,

Cr

I just found one of the Phillips E180F(SQ) tubes broken on my Grange. Any recommendations as to a substitute pair? Or should I stay with the same brand? I was happy with the sound but did find it on the noisy side. Good tube sources of late?

Thanks,

Crubio

He know everything one needs to know about audio electronics.
Most other repair people i have meet look inside a Supratek unit and
run for the hills.

Last time I spoke with Kevin he said he would take units once in a while.

Good Luck
