Reviews
WhatHiFi magazine said about it:  “[…]This is another impressive amplifier from Audionet. It’s as revealing as amplifiers get at this kind of money.”  

Stereotimes said about it" [...} The Audionet PRE1 G3 preamp is a high bandwidth designed around its own state of the art microprocessor - controller. In order to optimize its stellar high-frequency attributes, circuit size has been reduced to the absolute minimum. Moreover, the remaining signal paths are kept to a minimum, and are as free of sound-critical components as possible. Yes! Less is more. From the outside, the PRE1 G3 looks meticulously built inside and out. Audionet boasts only carefully selected high-quality components, like the fast discrete voltage regulators with low-noise gallium arsenide precision voltage references, high audio-grade electrolyte capacitors with a silk dielectric and selected high-current film capacitors with the lowest possible loss angle. Inside we find silver/gold internal cabling."
