Linestage kit

Hey Rocha,

That looks good. At that basic PCB price it would be rude not to.

Hi Ali,
Reading that thread, the B1 makes a lot of sense........

Cheers Nathan, I'd completely forgotten about that.

Darren, yes, I'm using one myself currently while the Pre 2 is having some TLC. It's very good, particularly in view of the low cost. The other good thing is it acts as a buffer also, so avoids the usual impedance matching issues of a passive pre.

I use a L/Speed into a B1 - Best detail and musicality I have ever heard. There is a good build thread on Audio Circle.

Starts at post 53.

I'd like to do a complete check on the costing of such a project before I kick off, building a couple of gainclone monoblocks was way more expensive than I initially thought it would be.

It's cases and transformers that push the price up!
