Music First Audio Passive Magnetic Preamplifier

An exceptional and exciting passive preamplifier. The Music First Audio preamplifier works differently to most designs in that it uses multi-tapped transformers rather than resistors as a volume control.

Unlike conventional pre amplifiers which use potentiometers for attenuation the Music First Audio preamplifier uses a transformer instead, which has the benefit of isolating and impedance matching sources and power amplifiers as well as breaking ground loop and reducing noise.

The volume control is basically a high grade Elma 20 position switch which connects different transformer windings via hard wired, silver plated Teflon covered wire. It features 6 inputs, two of which are balanced XLR connectors and the other four are standard phono RCA connectors. Output is via single ended or balanced and there is also the facility to add 6 dB of gain and lift the ground to reduce noise.

The transformers have a wide and flat Frequency Response of 10 Hz - 300kHz within a tolerance of + or - 0.5dB.

So far we have compared this against a variety of active pre amplifiers that cost several times as much and it has always shown up colourations in the alternatives, whether it be glare from a transistor pre or euphonic bloom from some valve designs.  We think this is an absolute bargain bringing unheard levels of transparency to almost every system.

The sound is tremendous, with a flow to music that other preamplifiers fail to achieve. Allied to a holographic soundstage with excellent dynamics, this is a perfect match to any power amplifier.
