~SOLD~
For sale is my excellent BP tube preamp Control Unit with EXD upgrades and remote control. Needless to say, the sound quality is amazing and the best that I've heard in this price range. Great sound stage, extremely musical and detailed. The winner of a prestigious HiFi Choice Editors Choice award and featured in the HiFi Choice Collectors Edition, the BorderPatrol Control Unit is a high quality tube pre-amplifier that combines the very best tone and resolution coupled with the ability to swing real dynamics and remain graceful and composed on all music programs. The super low noise floor reveals nuance and inflection that is lost by other designs and brings the listener closer to the players.
Staying true to the BorderPatrol design ethos, an elegantly simple triode audio circuit constructed with top quality components is fed by a sophisticated over-engineered power supply unit. Housed in a heavy gauge copper chassis, the point -to-point hard wired audio circuitry is mounted on a hardwood sub-chassis.
