"...truly
stunning sound."
"I noted exceptional resolution and transparency. The
sound was very close to what I associate with top-notch
active preamps that cost several to many times the price of
the Music First. There was a total absence of grain and
hardness. The midrange was simply lovely: smooth, delicate,
natural. The biggest surprise was the bass response, which
was exceptionally strong and tight yet not overdone. The
Music First did what a preamp should do: it enabled my
digital sources and my power amps to perform at their best."

...the
evidence is mounting that this demure little box from Great
Britain regularly brawls it out with the big dogs and comes
out the winner.
...in the right circumstance, the Music First is the
best preamp I've yet heard
...the Music First Audio preamp factors in my "Best
of 2005" list of favourite personal discoveries
Whoa baby ...this passive makes the ultimate
get-out-of-the-way solution to hear amps in full frontal
nudity. |
