Other Notes: "The Virtual Reality Engine preamplifier is the culmination of years of careful thought and painstaking research into the issue of preamplifiers and their effect on reproduced music. My lifetime of work as an equipment designer, recording engineer, and mastering engineer has allowed me to see clearly the degree to which preamplifiers (including passive volume controls) alter the music that we work so hard to reproduce in our homes. My goal has been nothing less than the creation of a device that acts as a conduit to the sound of the master tape, and which allows your system to be a true “window onto the performance.” I believe the VRE-1C achieves that goal, and represents a true breakthrough in preamplifier performance. The VRE-1C is a synthesis of the best attributes of tube, solid-state, and passive design, without the traditional drawbacks inherent in those technologies." - Steve McCormack
