Presence Audio Line stage 1
« on: 7 Jul 2013, 10:03 pm »
Hi All,

Anyone have any info on this line stage?  It's on agon, and I heard a version of this pre at a friends house, but I can't find any info on this model.  Here's the link to the ad:

any info would be helpful.

Thanks,

Dan

I heard this pre a long time ago...probably close to 20 years ago now.  Presence Audio changed their name to First Sound (I thought Presence was a nicer name...).  I remember it being very neutral sounding but lots of nice pres have come around since then.  I seem to remember it selling for around $5k so the Agon asking price is pretty good.  Sorry I can't remember more.  I wasn't really looking seriously at this price range at the time.  I was a starving student then.

Thanks for the input Ericus Rex.  My impression of an upgraded model (don't know which one it was) was also very favorable.

Anyone else have any thoughts?
