Sorry i dont know much about it.
But i would like to say that tube in/out look is sexy as hell.
DaveOnce again we meet at last. -
$2500~ is what they typically go for. The retail was $5200. It uses a quad of 6SN7, has a separate power supply in a full size chassis. Four inputs, 2 outputs, mute function. Remote control has volume and mute.
Killer preamp. Pair it with the one of kind Dodd amp I sold you, I don't know that you could do substantially better at ANY price.

Russ, Final questions.. How important is a gain factor in a tube preamp? What is the gain of this tube pre? Is it self-biased as the tube amp that you sold me. Thanks.
-
There is no biasing in 99% of the preamps out there. Gain is important, but moreso in dealing with phono stages. The Dodd has PLENTY of gain.Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

I am dealing with a seller on Audiogon for this preamp. Thanks for the information, Russ. Let you know if I get it.
-
Hurry up and get that Dodd; at that price it's a steal. It's funny how low a resale value Dodd gear has...seems like people don't know it for what it is??
Anyway, if you don't like it I'll buy it from you. Seriously._________________________________________________

HTrookie, thanks... Working with the seller, now.....
Russ, I attached a picture of the preamp back. Could you please tell me which one can be used as a HT by-pass? Thanks. -
It seems that it does not have a HT by-pass; I had the Dodd MLP which had the by-pass and it was clearly labeled_________________________________________________

HI Ricardo,
Yes, the Dodd preamp is sale pending to me. It is just waiting for the Paypal payment to clear before the seller ships the items. -

Zero, the Totem Forest system is complete, and it matches well with Plinius.. I am slowly building another one with Proac speakers and tube components.
