Wow this is a gorgeous preamp. I heard this briefly with my VAC monoblocks and it was a great combination. Unfortunately I am selling the VACs, but I've been lusting after this pre since hearing it.

Hi Andrew,

It's a fabulous Pre indeed, in immaculate condition also. Everyone should experience what Shindo has on offer at least once in their life... Their kits are very special. I have gone up the ladder but one could easily live happy with the Aurieges as the end game. It's that good.

Some nice reads on the Audioaficionado forum: http://www.audioaficionado.org/shindo-labs/19796-aurieges-too-good-its-own-good.html

Cheers,
B.

Thanks Chris,

I love my A23 Solovox. You should try some Shindo in your system. [emoji6]

Solovox was an own brand cheapo speaker from Comet discount warehouses back in the late 70's:eek: A change of name maybe?

Solavox surely?

They used Wharfedale drive units for a while.

That's the ones yes... just a letter different then but you're quite right it's Solavox:)

No comparison then [emoji6]

The Auditorium 23 Solovox RRP was £9k. Could be cheap for some ....

This is the one I bought from its original owner, and then sold to Paul. It's in immaculate condition, and is truly one of the best pre-amps I've heard. I would still have it, except, like Bernard, I got the opportunity to buy a Monbrison and went with that for its wonderful phonostage. In many ways, I (and others) really adored the presentation of the Aurieges, which has an uncanny knack of capturing the real tone of 'live' instruments. Magical device, well worth hearing. Good looker, too ... and retails for something like $5000 new.

Some background/history on the unit .. It's around 5 years old, originally bought new by a Wammer (iaxel), then sold to Peter (Petrat) then ended up with Paul (flapland). The unit is immaculate and comes with some spare valves (you may not use them at all as Shindos are very easy on valves).

The Aurieges Line Stereo's RRP is around $5,000 and represents great value.
