    Default HiQ sound pre and power & Dynaudio Monitors ( iota Q series )

    Does anyone recognise these apparently 20 year old pre and power?
    The power amp is apparently a prototype and was never released commercially so I don’t expect more info on that but the XLR connections, is that a good thing ? The included prototype iota/Dynaudio Monitors are also XLR .
    The iota/ HiQ Q series preamp has no power supply with it ( so I can’t test it ) which I know is a big no no , but if the price is right ?
    Could I get a power supply?
    Should I walk away ?

    Providing you can find out what the power requirements of the pre are then one could be bought or built to suit.

    Otherwise it is a bit of guesswork, helped a lot if a schematic is available. Good hunting.

    I don’t recognise those connections on the back of the preamp though ! Is it a studio pre ?

    It was a pro company so will likely be studio stuff or intended for that.
    Probably quite decent gear. Our own Anthony td may know more or the likes of dsjr
