Nicely upgraded Pass B1 design built by Radu Tarta, including upgraded capacitors, RCAs, a TKD volume pot, and more. I wanted to try a passive and as Radu suggested "Nelson's stuff always sounds good." It was enjoyable to try but I found I do need some gain out of my preamp. This is two months old with about 100 hours on it. Quiet as can be and very transparent! Built with one input and two outputs.  Also includes a three-way ground lift switch. Input impedance is 25K ohms and output impedance is 50 ohms.

The case is a heavy quality one but it does have a bit of a DIY finish on it. See the link below for Nelson Pass' description of the design. And if you're not familiar with Radu's work, below that I've listed his website:
