NUForce P-8S Stereo Preamplifier * Universal Remote * Box

Audiophile Nuforce P-8S Stereo preamp with remote control, original box/packing, excellent sound and design. It has balanced and unbalanced ouputs, IEC AC power cable, gold plated RCA inputs, etc. See the impressive description and specs below. This preamp was designed by Damian Martin of Spectral fame. It is in very nice well cared for working condition. It has always been in a non smoking climate controlled environment. This is the later version P-8S which is internally the same as the P-8, but a lighter chassis design, same size, etc. It is a beautiful light silver color. It sounds superb, open, detailed, dynamic, involving, spacious, transparent, extended, smooth and musical

NuForce developed its prescient preamplifier technology from the ground up to reassess and redefine faithful music reproduction.  The first impressions of listening to NuForce preamplifiers are those of pristine clarity, natural tonality, expansive imaging, and realistic proportions of the musicians and their instruments.  Bass notes are well defined and articulate, with addictive rhythm and drive.

Chassis available in black, silver or gold color anodized aluminum with sandblast finishing. 3 sets of control knobs in black, silver and gold color are provided for user to mix and match with the chassis.
