The Satchmo 3 is a world class preamplifier based on 6SL7 tubes with choke power supplies.
The Satchmo can be designed and built to your very own specification. Options include:
- remote control
- your choice of attenuator
- phono stage
- number of inputs/outputs
There are various levels of phono stage available and these can also be produced as stand alone units starting at £500. The two top level phono stages are an LCR based one and a psuedo LCR stage. See here for a Satchmo 3 review
All Satchmos are hand built using point to point wiring with silver wire in the signal path, Kiwame carbon film resistors, LeClanche or Mundorf coupling capacitors, and 6SL7 NOS valves.
The base model with Alps volume control, two outputs and four inputs built in the customised Italian case in the photo costs £1,300
