The newest REFERENCE PREAMP – an addition to the Lampizator family. “We took the best Amber3 scheme of noval tube stage and married it to the Vinyl Phono MC1 power supply and layout. And here is the REFERENCE PREAMP – a line stage that enables you to connect all known analog sources, like reel to reel players, cassette decks, tuners, TV, phonostages, CD players, DACs and many more. We put every effort to make it awesome. Every part, every operating point,m every design decision was chosen because of good sound and lifetime reliability. Hence the name REFERENCE. It is quiet, powerful, dynamic, pure and musical.”
