SOLD Melos SHA-1 Preamp/ Headphone Amp (Used)

Melos SHA-1 Preamp/ Headphone Amp

Stereophile Recommended Components "Class A"

8.5 / 10 Condition (Recently serviced & refurbished)

"...The first thing that struck me about the Melos's preamp performance was the utter clarity, the clear sense of ease throughout the entire frequency range...In short, the Melos KICKS ASS! It does nothing to alter the ambient soundfield in any way.. whatever soundstage depth is coming out of your source, the Melos will pass it along unscathed.I can't recommend the Melos SHA-1 highly enough. It's as good or better than any preamp I've heard at any price... the Melos SHA-1 is the only way to go; the closest thing yet to sticking your interconnects straight into your ears.  Is it a Class A contender? I and I think so..." COREY GREENBERG - Stereophile
