Listening results
    This preamplifier is my first realisation (1988), I discontinue many technical solutions as Fet or mirror current. The preamplifier model 1 is a good conventional preamplifier. Open loop allow better sounding than ampli-op or closed loop devices. He have good and ample bass, medium is very clear and detailed... The space is far, not very precise...
Its best quality is the silence of the power supply. There is no hum or rumble even at maximum volume output.
