Sonic Euphoria coming to Australia

Sonic Euphoria is a small
high-end audio manufacturer out of California in
the U.S. who makes one product, a very highly
regarded passive line pre-amplifier known as the
PLC (Passive Line Controller) and is available
in a single ended or fully balanced design.
This is not just another passive preamp, but a unique design using an autoformer attenuator. There are no resistors, potentiometers, or capacitors in the circuit at all. Sonic Euphoria’s design approach is to use the simplest circuit with the highest quality parts. They believe this to be the true path to Audio Nirvana. The sound is transparency redefined; all the clarity, detail, high and low extension, with a wonderful harmonic balance. The autoformer design maintains bass and dynamics where most resistors based passives will disappoint. The performance of this preamp is in the class of the very best made, yes even those cost no object $10,000 + units.
The good news is that a new model of the PLC is one the way to Australia, and will be distributed here by Wicked Digital. Keep an eye on the Wicked web site for up coming reviews and pricing.
