The Audion Premier Line level with moving magnet phono stage 2
box pre-amplifier is built on a quality substrate pcb (printed circuit
board) as with all our amps they are hand built. The chassis is black
powder coated aluminum as is the transformer cover. The top plate and
badge are mirror finished stainless steel.

The Audion Premier line / phono pre-amplifier  is an active
class A device. Built with 4 line level inputs and an MM phono stage,
switched from the front panel, 2 line outputs and a direct un-switched
tape output. This pre-amp has the benefit of their MM phono stage as
above included. The 2 box design puts the power supply in a separate
box, making it quieter and sonically better

The soundstage is extremely fluid and controlled. Roll off in both
directions is seamless. Resolution is astounding, with absolutely
convincing depth even at very low playing levels. It brings recording to
life and places you directly in front of the performance. The phono
stage is exactly the same as our stand alone version and is of a step up
transformer less design, meaning it is incredibly fast and fluid.

Amplifier matching

This Line level buffered pre-amplifier with built in MM
moving magnet phono stage is a great match with Audion power amplifiers.  Upgrade options
are available for this model, see upgrade options at end. This is a very
good pre-amplifier that can be used as a buffered volume control for
any amplifier other than ours that does not have a volume control, or
with any amplifier needing a volume control and a phono stage.

We would match this with any of our range of intermediate or high end power amplifiers

Quality both inside and out

As with all Audion pre-amps they feature a transformer less
design direct cathode coupled with no input, inter stage or output
wound components making this pre-amp extremely fast and capable of
handling the most intricate and detailed passages of music that can be
shown them. Outstanding performance, lightning quick response curves
and terrific transparency

The 2.0 line / phono pre-amp uses 2 x NOS Russian 6H1N-EB
tubes and 2 x Russian 6H23N as standard, it also has a ground lift
switch at the rear to assist in resolving grounding issues by floating
the ground internally above mains ground.
