Interesting I didn't think anything relating to Chapter was still available. I mentioned that instruction book yesterday to Robert, but its the wrong one. The Preface pre-amp he is after is a much later one, when Chapters gear had become more rectangular looking, less sculptured.

But if that one is on line, maybe the later one is as well.

I think this is the one Robert is looking an instruction book for ?

I couldn't find anything specific about anything the company made and only some reviews and ads from Singapore...

There isn't really anything on these amps which I found really odd as many other UK audio companies that no longer trade have some information still available, I enjoy the hunt for when someone can't find anything so will keep on it for a bit.

If there's any further information on this unit then it may help me track one down as they look fairly similar to each other

Hi Geoff, that Canadian hiifi brochure has already been offered to Robert on wigwam and he said it wasn't what he needed. The other link has the same manual I uploaded.

I did look for details on the 'S' version, but found nothing.

I had a look through the wayback machine (https://web.archive.org/). I found a reference to the Preface S (https://web.archive.org/web/20120525074830/http://www.chapteraudio.co.uk/products/hardback/) model but sadly the manual was not captured. However the manual for a closely related earlier product the Preface Plus is there. For convenience I downloaded it and it is here (http://imapnet.com/aos/Preface-Plus-Mk2-Jan09.pdf). Maybe this is helpful to the OP?

It seems that the the Preface S was part of the 'hardback' series which was released sometime after 2010.

I only found a few references to precis in the document, I suspect it was a typo on the part of the company.

Anyway sorry my efforts did not work out for you. :( Was nothing in the document relevant for the Preface S?

Perhaps find the individual behind the company and ask him if they have a copy of the manual?
