Is there a pre-amplifier(control) on the horizon?

Hi Alan,
Will there be a MC module/board available?

Hi.

Sorry, not in this pre amp, just MM.

Hi @Brookes

Sorry, I completely missed your last message.

Releasing at the Sydney HiFi show in April.

Just checking what happened in regard to the pre-amp at the show. I note that it is yet to appear on the website. Any news?

Hi @Howard R

Just a few more minor details to take care if before we release the pre1, plus we are waiting for the remote control units to finish manufacture.

Shouldn't be long.

Regards

Alan

Does that mean there will be an MC option in future offerings?

Yes 😀

Great, thanks for confirming! 👍

Any updates on a release date?

Hi Alan. Is the release of your preamp on the horizon? Thanks, Mick

I'm also interested in this pre 1 with on-board phono preamp.
At the moment, topping pre90 could be a solution, but would require an external phono preamp like the Pro-Ject S3.
And I'd still need additional inputs for other sources.

It's here, we demoed it at the Sydney Hifi show last week.

Just going to be a few more weeks before its on the website.

Alan - Is there a definite date for the preamp - it seems to be slipping to the right more and more ?

I saw dates mentioned in another thread, do you have any updates to share on features, price point, etc.?
