Whoa, this 20+ year old preamp just underwent a major overhaul -- all new coupling caps, ultrafast rectifier diodes, filter and bias caps, all gold-plated RCA connectors, ALPS volume pots, new ceramic sockets....
very nice sounding classic...it's not leaving home anymore...
MODULUS 1
Stereophile/83-J.Gordon Holt, "A Steal For The Money".
High Performance Review/83-L.Greenhill, "Clearly the panel was enthusiastic about the Modulus. No other preamp at or near its price delivered such sonics, especially in the midrange".
Audio Magazine/84-"For the determined audiophile in search of the best sonics, the Modulus could easily be the lowest cost component in an ‘ultimate system’. The dimensionality, depth of image and spaciousness were remarkable. WE ENJOYED THE MUSIC AND FORGOT REVIEWING".
