OVERVIEW
Based on valve designs, the "Preamp 3A" circuit uses Mosfets instead, to combine the technical advantages of Mosfets with the musical benefits of valve sound. The result of this artful balance of audio values is a clean, open, dynamic but sweet-sounding pre-amplifier with a high quality, quiet phono stage.
