I have available an Axiom Signature 2.5 K passive preamplifier that sounds terrific.
For a single source system you would be hard pressed to find a better sounding preamplifier for the money!
Great reviews everywhere, it's a single input single output passive (non powered ) preamplifier that lets the music flow! This is the signature model with the upgraded Caddock resistors.
And it's just $100 shipped to you in the lower 48, paypal included.
Please review my feedback on ebay as tobyw45 and on the gon as tobywhite and buy with confidence.
condition rated as 9/10 sice it is used, but sonically 10/10.
Thank you for taking the time to view this ad!
from the manufacturer's website:
The AXIOM is a truly reference quality preamp in an inexpensive enclosure. This is a fixed series/variable shunt device. In layman's terms this means the signal does not actually flow through the volume control. The signal flows through one high quality resistor and the amplifier's inputs are shunted to ground via the AXIOM’S Noble potentiometer. The degree in which the pot “allows” signal into the amplifier is simply what allows the customer control over his/her volume. A large part of the magic of the little AXIOM is its single input. We use no switching network whatsoever. Most critical listening is done on CD playback so why not shoot for the ultimate in clarity. The variable shunt technology allows control over the volume without the signal flowing through the actual volume pot which most audiophiles know is the weakest link in most preamp circuits. We are using very high quality custom made RCA’s with long barrels. A smooth NOBLE pot was chosen for long life, excellent tracking and a concern for cost vs. value. We are using the same 4/9’s silver wire found in our famed SYNCHESTRA interconnects. We are allowing our customers to choose between the standard HOLCO resistor and the upgraded CADDOCK version. The CADDOCKS are simply the best I have heard in this circuit. Considerably more detail than the HOLCO but for many applications the HOLCO will work very well. We invite you to compare the AXIOM to any preamp on the market. It will not be embarrassed by anything at any price.
