I'm looking for a nice passive pre that will not break the bank. I've seen all of the very cheap ones on eBay some of which look excellent value but wanted to see if anything was available on the used market first.

If you do not mind making a few solder joints and wiring between boards then this will provide as quoted
" as being the BEST passive preamp they had ever heard "

I've got a Tisbury I don't use, the only thing is I can't get hold of it for a few weeks!

If you want a nice one have a word with Ant of BTE Designs, he’ll build whatever you want, number of inputs, number of outputs, type of pot, type of switch blah blah. I had one from him built in olive wood to match my audio note speakers
Let me know if you want his details.
