Metis Preamplifier
The Metis Magnum presented us with a significant engineering challenge; to create a truly high end preamp at an entry level price. We believe we have succeeded! The Metis offers outstanding performance and build quality that is accessible to almost anyone with a love for great sounding music. Entirely hand built in the USA, the Metis is assembled to the same exacting standards as our most expensive preamplifiers.
