D7 Ultimate Preamplifier

D7 Ultimate Linestage
Valve PreAmplifier

Dual Platform preamplifier with optional (ICB) Isolation Capacitor Bank

The D7 valve preamplifier is finished in 9 carat gold plated exterior panels with a Tri-composite chassis made from; Mahogany, copper and carbon fibre. Point to point wiring is employed throughout for the purest circuit and signal transfer, using mono crystal cast copper and mineral loaded soft silver, allowing the retrieval of every harmonic detail.

The D7 is a 2 box configuration, separating the signals of the head unit from the operation of the power supply with 2 'self facing' KYOKU mains transformers for ultra silent operation. The D7 comes complete with a 1.8m dedicated pure silver umbilical cord to connect to the PSU, while the head unit is supported by specially designed carbon fibre feet which employ a 3 point ceramic bearing system. The carbon feet can be replaced by the D7-GE90 Ebony feet or the special edition Lignum Vitae LVSE90's at extra cost.
