modwright anniversary SWL 9.0 pre amp
had one of these lovely pre amps recently . using with a ss class A power amp and bel canto vbs dac 3.5 and verity audio Rienzi speakers .using a very modest onkyo sacd player
this is the blurb on this valve pre which is exceptionally well priced
Celebrating our 17th year in business, the SWL 9.0 Anniversary Edition tube linestage is a tribute to our first product, the SWL 9.0SE.
The namesake of Dan Wrights son, Spencer Wright, born 9.0lb at birth, the SWL 9.0SE was released thirteen years ago with great success as a high performance and high value tube linestage.
The SWL 9.0 Anniversary Edition retains the 5687 driver tube and many of its features, but is a complete redesign from the original.
Unlike the original, the Anniversary Edition includes a modern headphone amplifier and optional phono stage.
Features:
•Four sets of RCA inputs, one of which doubles as Home Theater Bypass.
•Two sets of RCA Main Outputs.
•One set of RCA Tape Outputs.
Front panel controls: Power, volume, mute, input select, HT/BP select, headphone input.
•Hybrid headphone amp: 1.5 Watts (25 ohm to 600 ohm load)
•MWI remote: Volume and mute.
•Optional MM/High Output MC SS phono stage

it feels really heavy and built like a brickhouse . it has a plastic remote unlike the metal of higher models but its good quality and does the job well . theatre bypass is so good to integrate with your AV system
two great big knobs for volume and selection feel really well made and real quality , the ergonomics of this pre are beautiful . lovely to use
very natural timbre and sound and very relaxing . its less resolving than the 36.5 and 36.5 dm [2 box ] but still is very enjoyable . it does not shake the chair like the grandinote proemio pre but its still very acceptable . piano is well reproduced and you could listen to this thing for hours without a hunt of fatigue . tubular bells have a nice ring
how dan modwright has done this at such a good price is remarkable .
10/10 for ergonomics which are so important when you use it for hours daily
got one of these in situ currently . using with a ss class A power amp and bel canto vbs dac 3.5 and verity audio Rienzi speakers .using a very modest onkyo sacd player
this is the blurb on this valve pre which is exceptionally well priced at £3450 I believe

I upgraded the power supply on my Gigafoil v4 to a Weiss PSU 102. It’s very nice step up. But with the new model, you’re looking at $2000 before even investing in a SOTA linear power supply.
