Designed by David Belles who started Power Modules 40 years ago. These dont come up on the market too often. I had paired it with the Belles power amplifier and it sounded good. I then had it connected to a Classe Audio power amp and that really took it up to a higher level. Build and sound quality fantastic, especially for the price!!! Sound quality is important and this amp delivers. Soundstage is dead center and have very very good dimensionality. This pre-amp is honestly fantastic and has features that other pre-amps just dont come with. I preferred the sound of this pre-amp to the Schiit Freya+ which has been very highly regarded. Selling because as a HiFi enthusiast you have to purge from time to time. Unfortunately I was never provided a remote. I ended up just using my trusty Logitech Harmony. Power Modules is very much still in business and them or their distribution can supply them.
