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

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone on the thread. I am just happy that I have been able to inform this many people of these great Supratek products. We are always happy to welcome more people into the Supratek family. A big thanks to Mick for building the best audio out there!
I have been over this thread now for the past week and have decided to try it and placed an order with Mick for a Chardonnay. It should be here first week in Jan of 07. My wife is a saint and actually ordered it for me. Here are some questions I had...

1. Any thoughts on how the Chardonnay would mate to a Accuphase A50A amp
2. Thoughts on using it with a Phonomena for the analog sction ( I just acquired it so i can't part with it, has the battery pack as well and it sounds really good right now in my current set up. )
3. Have had various tube products in the past and have always been disappointed. Mainly due to the noise I am hoping that this is dead quite like everyone here has stated.

This thread I can say has been very imformative and really help me to make my choice much easier.

Thanks
