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

Yes, it is true. Mick and I corresponded over the weekend and he is indeed giving up on audio and Supratek is no more.

I was his original importer and friend and he has his sights set on something new for his life.

It is making me think hard about whether I will sell the Cortese I have listed on Audiogon, or not, as I feel his gear will become classics. I've owned a bunch of his preamps and amps and while they have had some build issues, they all sound like real music.

I sure wish him the best of luck.
