So successful were they in realising their ambition that the ATC-1 became a global reference preamplifier for many years and defined that ideal of Japanese refinement. After many years of further research \u0026amp; development, Air Tight have now released the totally redesigned ATC-5 to continue the tradition and cater for the serious audiophile with a requirement for analogue or digital music sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAtsushi Miura always believed that developing a preamplifier depended on a never-ending process to find the optimum balance between the technology and art itself. Technology developed to process information efficiently and accurately was not always in alignment with the result of creating joy, emotional connection, excitement and musical artistry. He believed that the ultimate optimised combination of the technology and art shall eventually create a sort of supernatural phenomenon in the form of a visceral musical sensation. This is the ultimate goal and desire shared by all the discerning audiophiles in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompact as it is in size, the ATC-5 does not compromise in its design, component selection or build quality. Drawing on their 30-years of experience, Air Tight pulled out all stops in this design, including a monocoque chassis structure and point to point wiring (no PCB’s). Given that the volume control mechanism is so crucial to overall sonic quality, an Alps gold-plated multi-contact wire-brushed controller sealed in a machined brass case is used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo ensure perfect playback of vinyl records, highly rated 2-stage NF-CR circuitry for the most faithful realization of the RIAA curve was employed. The NF and CR sections are made independently with thorough elimination of interference between treble and bass ranges and unnecessary low frequency signals are crossed out to prevent unwanted vibration of speaker cones. 3 inputs allows listeners to enjoy multiple digital sources and a timer-relay system mutes output at the outset of playback, thus protecting the power amp section from transient current events. The line amp section consists of an orthodox 2-stage configuration featuring the 12AT7. For the sake of a tight and spacious soundstage, optimum decoupling circuits are placed at all the necessary points to prevent harmful interferences. Needless to say, all the Air Tight audio equipment is designed and made in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany audiophiles believe that the preamplifier is the most important component in a music system. It is often the focus of much of the designer’s attention as there are many aspects of the signal path that need to be carefully managed. The Air Tight ATC-5 is a high quality preamplifier with a great pedigree and outstanding sonics. It utilises a tried and true, well proven design that has been refined over many years so that it is very quiet, very transparent, neutral and ultra-dynamic. Music emerges from a totally silent background with authority, clarity and resolution. It is well known for realistically reproducing the nuances and ambiences existing at the moment of the recording, creating a mesmerising realism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is one of those rare audiophile products that users buy and tend to keep for life or replace with the same model. One listen and the ATC-5 feels complete. It just disappears and in its place..….. silence and music, ebb and flow. Transcend the equipment and lose yourself.

This is certainly convenient, however, an important aspect of audio pleasure has been lost. One aspect of operating an Air Tight amplifier is the sensation of turning a knob and experiencing the tactile sensation of a physical interaction between the human being and the equipment. Great care has been taken to design the knobs with a texture that feels right to the touch, with the ideal knurling feel and rotation inertia. There is something deeply satisfying about this process!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother Air Tight defining characteristic is the physical solidity, weight and quality of the piece. There is a real presence or gravitas about these meticulously hand made objects of desire. They look like a piece of equipment that doesn’t age and will look just as good in thirty years as it does today, a real heirloom piece that once created, will be passed on to future generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerhaps the most important aspect of Air Tight ownership is the enjoyable, fulfilling sound quality. When these amplifiers are conceived, developed and perfected, no deadlines are set. They simply take as long as they need to. Every possible idea is explored and a long process of refinement and evolution is undertaken to eventually arrive at the Air Tight sound. The ATM-7 is a preamplifier of the highest calibre and incorporates a number of technologies that are unique to it. The power supply circuit contains a rare regulation topology with a choke coil. The housing is a combination of new and traditional Bakelite \u0026amp; Steel. It takes the Air Tight philosophy and design priorities and expresses them to their full potential. Air Tight have said that “this is the preamplifier that we’ve always wanted to make”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sound has that sophistication that can only come with decades of experience. There’s a vividness, depth and dignity to the sound that emerges from the speakers. The music is balanced with a sense of naturalism and vividness as we have come to expect from these artisans of the Japanese tradition. In our opinion, this preamplifier has a charm that celebrates the joy of listening to music. Strip away the remote controls, the screens, flashing lights and all the gimmicks. Keep it simple, elegant and understated, then make it the best it can possibly be. Perfect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Section\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe key to the purity of the sound is the unique hand-made toroidal transformers with low leakage flux that are used in the power supply. Two transformers, one for high-voltage power supply and the other for low-voltage power supply, are installed and rigidly mounted on the main chassis by thick pure copper substrates. A new high-performance fully regulated power supply designed exclusively for the ATC-7 reduces the effects from flickers from commercial power supplies and provides clean\/stable power via a high-performance audio signal range choke coil. In addition, a large capacity film capacitor in the decoupling circuit is incorporated. Electrolytic capacitors are eliminated from both the signal and the decoupling circuits which contributes to the transparency of the sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Section\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA mechanical rotary selector switch which resists degradation over time is used for the input selector. The ATC-7 is equipped with 3 x RCA inputs and 2 x XLR inputs. PTFE insulated high-density, high-quality shielded wires are used for the cables from each input terminal, minimising the loss of audio signals and suppressing crosstalk between the left and right channels. “Presence control”, “Bass Compensator”, and “Gain Trim” are equipped with mechanical rotary switches that provide a nimble operational feel, providing joys of adjusting the sound quality. The Left and Right channels are configured back-to-back inside an inner chassis which is suspended from the top of the main chassis and a pure copper shielding plate is arranged in between to prevent interference. For the critical role of main volume adjustment, the ALPS RK-501 high-quality volume mechanism is incorporated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmplification Section\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a 2-stage NF type SRPP (shunt regulated push-pull) consisting of a twin triode 12AX7 and a 12AU7 for each channel. A mirror configuration in which the L\/R channel amplifiers are arranged vertically symmetrically. The amplification section is housed in a black chrome-plated inner chassis, and printed circuit boards are fixed on a thick pure copper bathtub-shaped substrate inside. The inner chassis is firmly fixed from the ceiling of the monocoque chassis via a specially made Bakelite bar. This Bakelite bar provides electrical isolation of the amplification unit from the main chassis while mitigating resonance. The front panel is made of 15mm thick aluminium cut with an NC lathe, and the surface is anodized.

The 6H30 line stage preamplifier is beyond no compromise. It features innovations and unique design applications that can only be described as extreme engineering. Utilising ECC82-6H30 tubes, it is a twin chassis design with the signal circuitry in one chassis and the power supply in another, connected by a thick umbilical cable. The power supply operates new generation lithium batteries, providing perfect, discreet noise-free polarisation of the individual preamplifier stages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt features two sets of balanced and single-ended outputs. The inputs have variable sensitivity and each input \u0026amp; output is individually and independently grounded! This technology offers completely distortion-free signal handling, rendering the common use of feedback obsolete. Aside from the zero-feedback topology, a minimal-crystal clear distortion-free signal path exists from the inputs to the outputs. Much engineering effort and cost has gone into creating this signal path and as a result, this preamplifier’s transparency is astronomical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSonically, the Alieno 6H30 preamplifier is a revelation. If you have an opportunity to experience its capabilities and virtues, it will make even the most reputed and expensive preamplifiers in the world sound coloured. Seasoned audiophiles often lament that the world’s best performing equipment is not the domain of the well-known high-end brands with the serious marketing budgets. Ultimate level equipment is usually the realm of the small, low volume handmade boutique brands which are masterpiece achievements by genius designers and left-field thinkers. Alieno is a great example of this observation and has become a favourite of the connoisseurs and cognoscenti.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nirvanasound.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Alieno_PreAmplifier.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElectrical Grounding\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe electrical grounding system within this preamplifier is unique and engineered to a level without precedence. All the grounds of each input\/output are independent and separate, even within the same channel between the left and right signal. This is a very complex solution to manufacture, however it guarantees the very best possible signal-to-noise ratio, which means a deeper and more silent background of the sound image (noise floor) and the sound appears to rise from pure silence and be ‘painted’ on a ‘deep black canvas’. The sound is palpably sharper, more detailed and three-dimensional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis strategy is implemented with high quality precision relays for each channel. Each time an input is switched, the input is muted for about 5 seconds before enabling the new selected input. During this slight delay in switching between one input and another, a further advantage of this technology is the fact that the preamplifier circuits ‘see’ only the selected input, because all the other inputs (even if connected with cables to many sources) are in fact electrically ‘off’, not having their ground reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this reason, none of the unselected inputs can transfer any type of electrical disturbances to the Alieno Preamplifier, which often originate from the grounds (generally all in common) and enter the circuit in the form of hum (typical ground loops). Furthermore, the condition of electrically ‘seeing’ only the selected input allows the Alieno Preamplifier to immediately identify any source that has any unwanted internal disturbances or interferences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the Alieno Preamplifier, the unselected inputs are NOT short-circuited (as is the case with many preamplifier designs that suffer from crosstalk) because that condition could be harmful to many of the latest generation digital sources which supply output electrical signals that do not tolerate an encounter with a short circuit when entering a preamplifier. There is also the option to have a dedicated input for pro sources with a floating balanced connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nirvanasound.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Alieno_PreAmplifier_rear.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume Control\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe implementation of the volume control is absolutely critical in terms of the sound quality of a preamplifier and by inference, the whole system. Typically, volume controls are made by a variable resistor which controls the signal in transit. The most adopted techniques in high-end audio are either the potentiometer (a variable resistor based on a sliding contact), or a series of fixed value resistors. The Alieno Preamplifier implements a unique technology which encompasses a step-free behaviour (like a potentiometer), coupled with the superior sonic transparency of fixed value resistors. To the user, it feels like a traditional volume control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Supply \u0026amp; Virtual Battery Mode\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlieno have implemented an exclusive power supply technology that makes a significant contribution to the sound of the preamplifier. Using a discrete dual mono topology, the Alieno Preamplifier employs four independent power supply units, not including the power supplies exclusively dedicated to cathodes and services. This ensures a fully shielded independent power supply to each the amplification stages. Moreover, each PSU acts in a ‘virtual battery mode’ thanks to the use of special capacitors whose value and topology have never been used before in amplifier applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nirvanasound.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Alieno_PreAmplifier_power_supply.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis technology allows the Alieno Preamplifier to work as if it was battery powered and therefore disconnected from the mains power. This de-couples the preamplifier from any electrical harmonics, disturbances and irregularities typically found in domestic mains power supply. A series of high quality heavy capacitors takes care of this task, but to get this ‘virtual power supply’ fully operational, the capacitors need a few minutes to reach their complete polarisation and electrical potential, so it is advisable to turn on an ALIENO Preamplifier and give it at least twenty minutes of low volume playing before embarking on ‘in-depth’ listening, regardless of the temperature of the listening room. Of course, you can listen to it right away, but after that warm-up period the ALIENO Preamplifier is in its best thermal\/electrical condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nirvanasound.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Alieno_PreAmplifier_power_supply_rear.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2 Levels of Attenuation For The Inputs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach input has a selector that allows you to set two attenuation levels for the input signal: – 8 dB and – 16 dB. The components involved for applying these two levels of attenuation are absolutely transparent to the sound, therefore, dynamics, transparency and timbre of the input signal are absolutely preserved and intact as in the zero attenuation position. This solution has been implemented in the ALIENO Preamplifier to cater for sources with diversified electrical output levels. For example, some of the latest generation DACs or digital players have output signals over 5V RMS. By having the option of two attenuation levels, the ALIENO Preamplifier allows the user to maintain a more homogeneous volume position, even when the connected sources have important differences between their electrical output levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe 6H30 Tube\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the two pairs of tubes used in the ALIENO Preamplifier is the 6H30 (the other pair is the ECC82). This tube is acclaimed in the audio design field for the purity of its sound. After around a 500 hour break in period, the 6H30 rewards the listener with natural tonality and wonderful realism. In the ALIENO Preamplifier, it is only used at approx. 30% of its electrical limit so it is not stressed and will deliver thousands of hours of reliable service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Monumental Achievement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Alieno Preamplifier is a no-holes-barred attempt at making the world’s best preamplifier. It is uncompromising in its design and incorporates multiple exclusive technologies and topologies to create a once-a-generation heirloom piece. The extensive grounding system and the innovative power supply system alone accounts for a large portion of its cost. Putting aside it’s unique design and no-expense spared build quality, it is simply one of the best sounding preamplifiers ever created. It is sonically transparent to the source and facilitates nothing but the music. The preamp is the heart and soul of the system and in this case, it has taken one man 30 years to develop and then hand-build a rare piece of audiophile utopia. There is evidence of engineering genius all over the Alieno and once you experience it, you forget everything you thought you knew.

For the phono stage, only add 6 junctions are added, for a maximum additional boost of 66 dB (77 dB in total). The advantages of these new circuits, whose designs are patented, produce an extreme, pure sound quality never achieved before.

The sound is a nether tube as in the solid-state. The NHB-18NS seamlessly combines the two so-called juxtapositions into a seamless harmonic whole that is not bound by the usual standards. It pursues the goal of achieving the end game in its very own, extreme way. To describe any high-end audio component as a higher-order instrument is often considered controversial. The NHB-18NS plays in a completely different league and has dream machine qualities. It plays music in a way that is both captivating and believable.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.monoandstereo.com\/2020\/08\/dartzeel-nhb-18ns-preamplifier-reveiw.html\"\u003eRead Review\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hifiplus.com\/articles\/dartzeel-nhb-18ns-preamplifier-and-nhb%E2%80%91108-model-two-power-amplifier\/\"\u003eHi-Fi+, Chris Thomas, 2020\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The resultant tone, note shape, and expression that each musician can extract allow them to create a different kind of tension – this time in the listener. Each instrument drowned the room in dripping colour. The way the daRTzeel shows the differences in reverb speed, dynamics, and the layers of harmonic bloom that swirl around as the art of the luthier joins the circle is fascinating. If you think an acoustic guitar is a simple thing, then I assure you it is endlessly complex in both scale, speed, and tonality. When it comes to the sheer resolving power of the amplifier, then it goes way down to the sub-note level, and it does it effortlessly… …I loved my time with the daRTzeel amps as much as I have with any product over the years. The pair are not in any way ‘cheap’, but they are primarily so involving and musically enlivening that price becomes a secondary concern. They delivered such musical joy and involvement that it has indeed been a rare privilege to have them at home, and I was extremely sorry to see them leave. They are truly exceptional and a huge testament to Hérve Delétraz and his audio art.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hifiplus.com\/articles\/dartzeel-nhb-18ns-preamplifier-and-nhb%E2%80%91108-model-two-power-amplifier\/\"\u003eRead Review\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.absolutesounds.com\/pdf\/main\/press\/HFCr_07to09:20_59_NHB18NS.pdf\"\u003eHi-Fi Critic, Martin Colloms, 2020\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"This beautifully crafted Swiss pre\/power combination has been highly developed to deliver unusually natural and musically entertaining sounds.

In particular, the Equinox active gain stages are based on a\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003ecompletely new amplifier topology developed for the input stage of the new Eclipse power amplifier. Active components are configured in such a way as to ensure that they are always operating at the optimum point in the I-V curve, resulting in negligible distortion, high slew rate, fast transients and an extremely linear response. This is one of the signature, proprietary approaches that separates Halcro from other amplifier designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new gain stage topology delivers exceptional transient attack and resolves subtle musical cues while presenting them in a very natural way. This also provides for very high dynamic contrast, expressively presenting the deliberate changes in volume within a piece of music which add emotional depth and nuance.\u003cbr\u003eEquinox also preserves the phase integrity of the signal, a critical element in reproducing music. This ensures the accuracy of tone, timing and the pitch relationships between notes. It does more than this; it results in faithful reproduction of the full sound stage, in 3 dimensions. Every instrument is faithfully presented in the right place and at the right scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVersatile Connectivity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are more than enough inputs and outputs. The Equinox has four balanced inputs and three unbalanced inputs per channel. Each channel has four balanced outputs, four unbalanced outputs and two current outputs, a very rare option in audio. Current-loop interconnects are highly immune to environmental RF noise and may offer significant improvements in noisy environments. The Equinox offers a phase inversion feature for those annoying out-of-phase recordings and ‘ground-lift’ isolation for noisy systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridged-Drive Mode – Power Without Compromise\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Equinox has the added feature of bridged-drive mode. This allows it to drive bridged amplifiers without needing custom cabling solutions. Use your existing high quality interconnects and select bridged mode to drive a pair of power amplifiers per channels. Equinox can drive bridged amplifiers in balanced, unbalanced or current output mode. Bridge-mode amplification uses two amplifiers operating in push-pull mode to quadruple the output power. A pair of 200W amplifiers driven in bridged mode can theoretically deliver 800W into the load if they have enough current capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInnovative Industrial Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe industrial design of The Equinox represents a transition from the iconic designs of previous Halcro models to the design language of the future. The enclosures are machined from solid metal.

Born from a lifetime of relentless pursuit, this is the purest, most transparent conduit between music and emotion we’ve ever created. With a vanishingly low noise floor of -145dB—beyond the limits of human perception—it uncovers musical truth with explosive dynamics, infinite depth, and holographic imaging.

Transients explode with lightning speed, and its bandwidth stretches beyond 500kHz for limitless openness and realism. High-speed, zero-feedback Diamond buffers preserve every musical nuance, while a revolutionary film-capacitor power supply unleashes dynamics with astonishing grace. This is not refinement. This is reinvention.

The Paul McGowan Signature Preamplifier is the first product in 50 years to carry my name, and for good reason. It delivers complete control, ultra-low distortion, and total isolation between sources and amplification. With five identical balanced and single-ended inputs, all signals are converted to fully balanced and passed through our zero-feedback Class A Diamond buffers. Nothing is added, nothing taken away.

Designed by Darren Myers and carrying the name of our founder for the first time in 50 years, this is the culmination of a lifetime of innovation. Fully balanced from input to output, every stage features zero-feedback Diamond buffers for unmatched speed, transparency, and control. A high-resolution stepped attenuator ensures precise volume with 1\/10th dB channel accuracy, revealing microdynamics with lifelike precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt its heart is a revolutionary power supply that eliminates traditional electrolytic capacitors, replacing them with long-life, sonically superior film capacitors. The result is lightning-fast transient response, deeper silence, and greater dynamic swing. Housed in a double chassis construction that shields against noise and interference, the PMG Signature achieves a noise floor of -145dB—so quiet it’s not there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat you hear is exactly what was recorded—nothing added, nothing taken away. No glare, no grain, no veil. Just the music, uncolored and alive.

This is where the real magic happens, where the fragile musical signal is amplified without the slightest trace of coloration. The design blends the best of both FET and BJT technologies, combining the finesse and linearity of FETs with the dynamic control and drive of BJTs. Fully complementary from input to output, the gain stage maintains perfect symmetry and balance, operating in pure Class A, direct-coupled and servo-controlled for absolute signal integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this stage apart is its innovative take on the folded cascode topology. Traditional cascodes use stacked transistors to improve gain and bandwidth, but the folded version “bends” the signal path, allowing high voltage swing, low noise, and wide bandwidth without the instability or harshness of conventional designs. Our version pushes this even further, lowering output impedance, increasing linearity, and preserving every nuance of the source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is pure and perfect amplification—no filters, no coloration, just an open window into the soul of the music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Power Supply\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything we hear in our systems—every note, every whisper, every explosive crescendo—starts life as raw DC power. That power is then modulated by the circuitry into music. Which means, at its core, what we’re actually listening to is the quality of the power supply. Get that wrong, and nothing else matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost high-end preamplifiers rely on electrolytic capacitors to store and deliver that energy. But electrolytics come with baggage: high equivalent series resistance, limited lifespan, increased distortion under load, and poor high-frequency performance due to internal inductance. They dissipate energy inefficiently and smear transients. In short, they dull the edge of realism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Paul McGowan Signature Preamplifier throws all that out the window. Using an elegant system of analog level multiplication and dozens of large, hand-selected film capacitors—components known for their speed, ultra-low loss, and near-eternal lifespan—we’ve eliminated the noise, grain, and sluggishness that plagues even the best conventional designs.\u003cbr\u003eThe result is a supply so clean, so responsive, it disappears. What’s left is music with effortless dynamics, stunning clarity, and a sense of magic few have ever heard.

Bridging these sources to your power amplifier without adding any kind of sonic thumbprint is a challenge the StellarGold preamplifier takes on without any hesitation. Life, energy, and a sweet analog presentation are at the heart of this remarkable piece of equipment's performance. The StellarGold Preamplifier features 4 identical balanced and single ended inputs, and converts all input signals into a balanced signal for the lowest possible distortion, and can be used in a two-channel audio system or as part of a home theater system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOverview\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe StellarGold Preamplifier is a remarkably musical instrument. It is an excellent uncompromised interface between your sources and power amplifier. Designed by Darren Myers, the StellarGold outperforms preamplifiers at anywhere near its price. Preamplifiers play a critical role in any separates audio system, strategically positioned between sources of music: CD players, phono preamps, DACs, tape recorders and tuners – and your power amplifier – the preamp serves essential roles of control and isolation. Control is simple in concept, but extraordinarily difficult to design in an acoustically transparent manner. Control duties such as input switching, volume, balance, and amplification can place unwanted acoustic thumbprints on the music if not designed with extraordinary care. The StellarGold is one amazing preamplifier that we can't wait for you to hear in your system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInside Story\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of any preamplifier are the gain stage that provides the amplification, and the volume control that manages how loud or soft the music plays. Inside the StellarGold preamplifier is an all new high slew rate, low feedback, discrete JFET BJT hybrid that has remarkably low distortion without relying upon high levels of sound-squashing global feedback. Volume is controlled by a fully balanced precision electronic version of a stepped attenuator. A large, oversized high-current transformer feeds the StellarGold Preamp's power supply, which ensures that the unit can reproduce music with a wide dynamic range, without compression or distortion. Fully-balanced circuitry with a bandwidth that extends almost to DC on the low end and well above audibility on the high end are responsible for the effortless presentation of music StellarGold preamplifier owners will enjoy. Openness, transparency, increased space around instruments---voices come alive in ways most never thought possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Build\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe designer's goal was to build a high slew rate, high bandwidth, open-sounding amplification stage that imparts no sonic signature and produces natural, open, music with affectation. All inputs are balanced as soon as they enter the StellarGold Preamplifier. Input switching is accomplished through hand-selected double-pole double-throw, gold plated relays that we’ve chosen for their sonic neutrality. High-performance pure-analog audio products like the StellarGold Preamplifier benefit from the use of high grade Audiophile capacitors and the finest discrete parts.

The zero-feedback gain section utilizes one 6DJ8 (6922) vacuum tube per channel in a fully differential, balanced configuration, preserving the dimensionality and real-to-life performance captured in your favorite recordings. We take the time to burn our tubes in for over 100 hours before testing to ensure the most accurate results. We then do a complete FFT distortion analysis on each tube and match the set for your preamplifier to within .2dB of each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaking advantage of its internally balanced operation, Pallene employs a solid-state summing\/differential output stage. This design gives you all the benefits of our differentially balanced circuitry, even when using the single-ended RCA outputs. We provide additional flexibility for you by allowing simultaneous use of the XLR and single-ended outputs. This option gives you the ability, for example, to drive both a power amplifier and a subwoofer with Pallene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA key part of any Aesthetix piece is our devotion to overbuilt, state-of-the-art, fully-regulated power supplies. To begin, we design and manufacture our transformers in-house, ensuring the best possible voltage source feeds our power supplies. These Aesthetix low flux transformers incorporate multiple secondary windings, delivering pure, stable power to each critical section.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese windings feed our discrete regulation, providing a precisely tailored response for the critical analog sections.

StealthCap capacitors created by Peter Moncrief aim to cure this problem by dramatically reducing reflections along the capacitor plate. The \"Stealth Technology\" is made possible by a combination of laborious precision handiwork and costly exotic materials including new conductors, dielectrics, and composite resins. The resulting signal has a quieter background, rich and detailed spatial imaging, time focused musical coherence, and a broader more impactful dynamic range. The Io Eclipse uses eight .22uF \/ 600v Stealth coupling capacitors made of exotic copper foil. These are used between the second and third gain stages, and the third gain stage and output stage. The Io and Callisto Eclipse output stages also use eight 4uF \/ 400v Stealth capacitors in a unique balanced configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChassis Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEclipse Edition chassis feature an extremely rigid and acoustically damped design, delivering new levels of articulation and clarity.

It is well known that capacitor quality is directly correlated with sound quality, and Aesthetix has a history of investing heavily in pushing the boundaries of capacitors. But Jim wondered, \"Could even better sound quality be realized if capacitors were eliminated entirely?\" The answer is yes, according to Metis, which uses an ACM in each channel between the gain and output stages and no interstage or output coupling capacitors. ACMs produce constant output impedance across all audio frequencies, while a standard capacitor’s output impedance rises as frequencies drop often yielding tubby bass and other sonic degradation. In contrast, the ACMs in Metis result in a sound stage with incredible added depth, dimension and resolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"INVISIBLE\" SEPARATE POWER SUPPLY (ISPS)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Metis chassis is designed around a suspended inner core that, when set on a flat surface, physically decouples from the main chassis. The power supply is housed in this inner core creating an \"invisible\" separate power supply chassis. When sitting on a rack, there is no physical connection between the power supply assembly and the main chassis, save for the connecting wires. This innovative design means Metis enjoys the sonic benefits of a separate power supply without the disadvantages of an additional chassis including extra cost, space and heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSTUNNING DESIGN ALSO MEANS OPEN ARCHITECTURE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Metis user interface was developed with both elegance and flexibility in mind.

At its heart are the in-house made transformers used for attenuation. In addition, its valve state circuit combined with exquisite materials produce the finest and most elegant sound that any pre-amplifier could ever achieve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConventional wisdom suggests that the most critical part of a pre-amplifier is the active circuit design. However, Ypsilon believe that the means of signal attenuation (the volume control) is the most critical to the overall sound of a preamplifier. Most designers use resistor attenuators for volume control. Ypsilon have used resistor attenuators with high quality resistors (eg. Vishay) in the past but felt unsatisfied with the character they induced in the signal. Ypsilon developed a very special transformer as the means of attenuation, using special winding techniques and highest quality wires and cores. Its performance surpassed that of the best resistor attenuators. In a transformer the magnetic circuit can be ultra linear when the very best core materials are used. The sound of such materials is much more musical and detailed compared with the best resistors. A transformer attenuator with 31 taps is used in the PST100 mk2 providing a total attenuation of 54db in its lowest tap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe active gain stage is a no feedback S.E. C3M triode, transformer coupled. The power supply uses valve rectification (using the 6CA4) and choke filter. Wiring is point to point with custom made pure silver wire. The transformer attenuator is placed after the valve stage, preserving the purity and micro details of the signal. The gain is 16db. Output impedance is 150 Ω max.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePST 100 Mk2 TA is also available without the valve stage for systems that don’t require additional gain. This version is equipped with the transformer attenuators and is called PST 100 TA.
