For sale is the Audio Zone PRE-T1 Passive Preamp which using the famous Stevens & Billington TX-102 Transformers. Audio Zone is a Canadian Audiophile audio outlet specialising in Hi-End audio gears. Peter Daniel and George Tordai are the two men behind the Audio Zone PRE-T1. They also used the same Stevens & Billington TX-102 transformers which are so famously used with the UK Music First Audio MFA Passive Preamp and also Bespoke Audio, a spin off company using the same philosophy. Apart from using the high quality S&B transformers the PRE-T1 also employs an expensive and high quality 24-position Elma switch selects from the transformer windings and dual mono two-pole toggles select the input. What this PRE-T1 stands out from the rest is that it has the unique extra 6db gain feature. This is extremely useful if your input has much lower gain or impedance eg. vinyl phono stage and low output DAC. With this it would lift the dynamic and pace to another level. The aesthetic presentation of the PRE-T1 is above all other products, not just a square box as normally seen with many other more expensive models. The PRE-T1 is housed with solid aluminium block. It looks like a powerhouse and indeed it performs like one!! This PRE-T1 is in excellent condition with no dents or oxidation. All parts are in pristine condition in and out. Most TVC passive preamp especially using S&B Transformers need long time to run in and I do believe this PRE-T1 has just done enough to peak now. Audition is welcome.
