Product Highlights

Specifications: All-tube stage (12AT7 gain/12AU7 cathode followers), six active high-voltage regulators, five remote inputs, two line outputs, tape monitor, high/low filters, low-gain mode, and headphone amp. The Audio by Van Alstine FET Valve CFR Preamp blends premium tube circuits with full remote convenience. Featuring isolated ground planes and a shielded power transformer, it eliminates background noise. Polypropylene capacitors in the signal path ensure great dynamic range, exceptional transparency, and high load-drive capacity for demanding audio systems.

Lauded by The Absolute Sound and Part-Time Audiophile, this unit is celebrated for stellar soundstage transparency and nuanced upper octaves. Reviewers highlight its ability to resolve fine details cleanly without artificial brightness. Praised for a perfect blend of neutrality and accuracy, critics note that it delivers modern tube sound at its best, providing realistic bloom and three-dimensional depth without imposing coloration.

This preamp brings authentic valve liquidity and lifelike staging into your setup without traditional tube upkeep or noise. Onboard filters and low-gain options easily tame aggressive speakers or poor source material. Operating as the quiet, transparent heart of your electronics chain, it effortlessly coaxes the maximum potential from your amplifiers and sources, making it a definitive upgrade for anyone wanting their music to feel truly engaging and alive.
