Completed Balanced Iron Pre

[aljordan]

Hello,

I built a second balanced Iron Pre with a remote control volume control, so I am selling the first build. It sounds great!

• Two balanced inputs and three RCA inputs.
• One balanced and one RCA output.
• Dual high quality stepped attenuator volume controls.
• Hifi2000 chassis
• Shielded cable to and from VCs, balanced inputs and balanced outputs.
• Completely noise free at full volume on every input.

Total cost to build was right about $900.00. Will sell for $700.00 plus shipping and Paypal fees (if you don't use Friends and Family).
Shipping to U.S.A. addresses only (possibly Canada but you may get shafted on customs).

Note, I forgot to dust off the top cover for pictures, but it is in great shape. I didn't have it powered up when taking a picture of the front. The LEDs on the selector switch are blue and not blindingly bright.

Frequency response at 96kHz

THD plus noise at full volume:

Stereo crosstalk:

Thanks for looking.

Nice Iron Pre Alan and a very fair price. Someone will enjoy this!

I'm curious what volume pots you have in there?

I used EIZZ 10k stereo pots. The channel tracking is dead on between all four channels in the two attenuators. I was very impressed with the quality, given the price was quite a bit lower than the Gold Point attenuators I had been previously using.
