Well, this is no cheap piece of junk, just inexpensive. The sound just knocks my socks off, and knocks the socks off everybody who hears it. XL-280 for treble. I was using it to drive an old but excellent pair of Acoustat electrostatics through a Richter scale cross-over and a pair of Hafler MOSFET amps-DH-220 for bass. I could not get my Hafler DH-110 pre-amp repaired. I bought this cheap little preamp after a year of debate. The pots and switches were just oxidized too much. I did not want to buy a real expensive pre-amp for a variety of reasons, but I did not want to buy a cheap piece of junk.
I do hear a slight tick when changing inputs but not a deal breaker.ANTONLINE was fine to deal with.JAB out Brony here.Pre-Amp from Audiosource is a great device. J. A. Works as designed.
Works really good with the Audiosource Stereo Grafic Equalizer. This is a great product if you want to control several componets of your stereo system. Worth the money.
Bare bones preamp. Good for a den, but not for a bedroom or for low, soft sounds.
It's only so so in a bedroom environment. which is suppose to match up to this preamp, has a cutout switch, which is VERY annoying.
The regular amp. Under moderate or loud volume this preamp/amp setup is fine.
Good Pre-Amp over-all. Needs a final main amp to work correctly.
It has a auto 0n/Off switch which is suppose to engage the line input constantly, but that does not work very well.
50 per channel. Let me caution you though make sure you read the specs. If you don't need much power and only want to power smaller speakers grab this now. Clearly by now you know I did not, so I goofed. All in all for the price it does the trick. I made another boo boo by reading too quickly, I thought it was 100 watts per channel.uh no 100 watts total, i.e.
If you have larger speakers go for the next model up with a bit more power. I bought this w/o checking to see if I had an preamp jack.I assumed I did. However, if you want to power an outdoor system or secondary system at home this will do the trick. I kinda blew it on this one and can only blame myself.
