Visit our store at: http://stores.ebay.com.au/Audiophile-Corner For Audiophiles who demand the very best in vacuum tube preamplification, Rogue Audio provides it with the Perseus preamplifier. With astonishing accuracy, the Perseus reference preamplifier reveals all of the nuance and detail previously hidden in your recordings. The deep taught bass and sparkling highs are recreated with surgical precision. A sublimely smooth yet uncolored midrange provides the basis for musical experiences you will wish never to end. Equally impressive are the rock solid imaging and deep soundstage that provide unparalleled musical presence. The Perseus is a feature rich preamplifier that includes a four tube line stage and an excellent high gain phono section. The phono section is user adjustable and compatible with almost all of todays high performance moving coil and moving magnet cartridges. Other features include a home theater bypass, metal remote control, subwoofer output, auto mute function and a slow start feature to prolong tube life. In keeping with Rogue Audio’s “quality by design” philosophy, only the finest components are used in the construction of the Perseus. Gold and silver abound as do ultra-high tolerance resistors, polypropylene capacitors, gold/ceramic tube sockets and all of the other exotic componentry so important to discerning audiophiles. And to complete the picture, all of these technical features are captured in a sophisticated chassis design that artfully displays the exacting electronics contained within.

I had expected a bit more noise, yet the Perseus relegated any such "hiss" to extreme volume with nothing playing - and still I had to leave my chair and place my ear to the drivers. On vinyl, Nat King Cole's LP, After Midnight is in itself a wonderful moody recording from 1956. Perseus presents Nat and the Trio with a full range – his voice is smooth yet throaty, forward, and airy. The instruments from Stuff Smith's violin, and Nat's piano playing are nicely articulated, alto sax, trumpet, and trombone sufficiently brassy. This is an accomplished ensemble. Perseus made this two-album LP so much fun! Of course CDs are where it's at, right? Yo-Yo Ma's Vivaldi's Cello with the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra is an easy listen and not all that complex to enjoy. Of course if you love the cello as I do, Perseus delivers it with warmth and musicality. Believable "live" bass is tight and fast. Highs are nicely extended and crisp, yet the edges are softer, relaxed. " - Piero Gabucci - HomeTheaterHiFi "The Perseus contains an arsenal of features including a four-tube “mu-follower” line stage, and a high-gain phono section with user adjustable cartridge loading. Other features include a SUBWOOFER OUTPUT, and a HOME THEATER BYPASS, which makes it very amenable to home theater use. Its bold and chiseled appearance belies the TLC inside; “cost no object” resistors, capacitors and tube sockets, and silver solder points. In terms of articulation, the Perseus delivered sharply defined and clearly accentuated piano notes. One could hear that Benoit was a younger, more animated pianist. Benoit’s seeming impatience with melody came through on the Perseus. Much of this detail was the result of hearing the venue and the ambient information on the recording quite clearly. If you are a “background” person, who loves to hear the setting as the music is playing, the Perseus can retrieve it for you. It will not be at the level of preamps in the $2.5k and up range, but it will be far more revealing than even very pricey surround receivers. This is the Perseus’s greatest advantage; at its price point it will yield verifiably audiophile quality sound, versus the schlock that so often is schlepped on the public." - Doug Schroeder - www.dagogo.com The preamplifier is brand NEW unit and it comes with 1 year Australian Warranty! Aluminium Remote Controller included! Made in USA! If you are serious and in Sydney area, ask for audition. |
