Thought those Members here who like retro-looking audio electronics, especially valve gear might be interested in the Treehaus Audiolab 'The Preamplifier'':

I'm amused by the two separate volume controls (actually stepped transformer attenuators) which go "up to 11". :lol: A lot of thought and effort seems to have gone into the design which may justify the almost arrogant title of 'The Preamplifier'.

Like it, looks a quality bit of kit, but then it bloody well should!

Would look better if the whole front was black. Would look really good then.

I wouldn't have a valve pre-amp again, though.

And I wouldn't be without mine.
Mind me asking what it was you had, Macca ?
If this one sounds half as good as it looks I'd be placing an order, subject to the lottery win, obvs.

Looks a bit like the old Vortexion Mic preamps.

£24k... Jeez
