Deluxe Passive Pre

This is our top line passive pre which will compete with any passive out there. Using a pair of costly transformer attenuators insures a minimum of signal loss. The transformers are connected to the Swiss made Gold Elma rotary switch using Teflon coated Copper wire. All other wiring utilizes our exclusive super conducting Silver Alloy for the ultimate in signal integrity.

The standard unit features two Rca or XLR inputs and one output. The front toggle switch allows the user to choose inputs. It is also available in other configurations. Please contact for specific quotes. It features a switch which allows the user to choose between the standard signal or a 6db gain. This is a very useful feature when using low powered amps. The extra gain really helps.

The sound is as pristine as you can get. Here are a few unedited comment from customers:

Hi Tom,
I went home for lunch today and received a pleasant and unexpected surprise - my passive pre had arrived. I only had a half hour or so to listen to it, but right out of the box it annihilated my well-reviewed, imported TVC I had in my living room system.
I'm going to try it in my headphone system tonight, and if it pans out there, you'll probably get an order for another one.
This is a wonderful preamp, Tom. I would pit it against any passive pre out there.
Best regards,
Rob

Hey,
My passive pre sounds real, real good.  It goes well with my nuforce
 ref se v2.  No brightness as you suggested.  Doesn't sound like a passive
 as there is lots of dynamics and plenty o bass.

Thanks,
Ron
