Metaxas Audio MAS Opulence 3 Preamplifier mint..!
|
in perfect condition,this 2 chassis preamplifer (has outboard power
supply,using 2 huge transformers)sounds excellent we will be selling the
Metaxas poweramp shortly,
|
After you've put the fire out & rebuilt it, eh Trev :-)?
|
Not all the Metaxas stuff was unreliable.
I know a bloke who owned a Marquis 2 preamp since new without any
problems. I bought it from him and used it without problems for another
2 years before selling it on.
The power amps certainly had a reputation for problems but as I
understand it as long as the preamps were given adequate venting[they
run hot] they were fine.
They actually sound very good-especially with valve amps.Not as good as
my Supratek Cabernet 300B valve preamp but still better than anything
else I have heard[valve,transistor,chip or passive].
Metaxas was probably really onto something with his very short signal
paths.
