Hello!

Just spoke to S&B and he mentioned a new review in HiFi News magazine from the UK. I have not even seen it yet so if anyone gets a look please let me know how it looks!

Thansk!

Congrats!

I would love to read the review.  Any chance they will allow you to post it on your website?

Does it still look like you will go back to  making the NOH in a few months?

Hello!

I expect at some point we'll be able to post it but not until newstand sales are complete!  I will have a pre-amp offering of some kind - eta about the end of the year.  The ideas are taking shape and design is happening now.

Thansk!

Hello!


Yup. Plan is to use the MK III - I expect that will be the rev for some time yet.

Thanks!

How does the MKIII differ from the MKII?  I know the difference between the I and II (with +6 db increase).

Thanks

Hello!

Way back when I announced rev 3 I posted some notes on the different revs here:

That post is still up to date and there are no plans (or need really) for a new rev right now.

Thanks!

The current UK HI-Fi News (October 2004) has a review of the Music First Audio 'Passive Magnetic Pre Amplifier' and they like it very much.

Hello!

Just spotted a link to the review at S&B's (or MF Audio - the finished products from S&B) distributers web site. Here it is:
