Here are some pictures of my new pre which arrived back from the work shop yesterday after a total rebuild. Never heard of the make before Tekni-fi? was made in the 90’s in Denmark, brought as a bit of a punt off eBay for £250 (after some hassle and a bit of a refund off seller). It is line leavel only, with a all Perspex casing, and now has two out puts one with Teflon V-Caps the other with Audio Note Copper Caps. I have had a balance put on both out puts as my hearing is a bit duff in one ear. Other caps used were Mundorf Tube caps for power smoothing. The designs basically the same as original, but with a few tweaks made to the output stage. The power supply is very good, has a separate tube regulated power supply for each channel. The sound is very impressive, it is very open, smooth and detailed beyond belief with a very solid focused sound stage. Sort of takes the breath away with a good recording, way ahead of my Epoch.
