This superbly crafted Hattor Audio The Big passive preamplifier features two precision 1% SMD resistor attenuators and offers the very latest in sound reproduction refinement. Both a passive preamplifier and a input selector with generous connectivity (2x RCA & 3x XLR IN / 2x RCA & 2x XLR OUT), this impeccably finished, hand-assembled device is an essential part of any ambitious high-fidelity installation.

Takman REX resistors

Original American 24k gold-plated CMC connectors with PTFE insulation and silver cabling allow the Hattor Audio The Big preamplifier to compete with the best high-end products on the market. The attenuation stage is equipped with high-precision, individually tested 64-position Takman REX resistors with solid gold tracks and constant impedance inputs.

Each passive mono attenuator is equipped with an insulated aluminum shield, guaranteeing optimum channel separation for very low crosstalk. Purists of perfect correction, as well as enthusiasts of experimentation, will appreciate the two dissociable potentiometers enabling them to control the left or right channel separately - or conversely, to couple them thanks to an individual level per channel.

Its flexible operation, outputs, internal design and impeccable component quality make the Hattor Audio a high-performance device for the most demanding ears.
