Musical Fidelity A 3.2cr Preamp in pristine condition, less than a year old, complete with owners manual, remote control and all original packaging, RRP £1000

Superb preamp, exceptional build quality, winner of many awards, no marks or scratches, as new.

The old A3^CR dual mono preamp is still about as good as a preamp can be. Its noise ratio, distortion, bandwidth, overload margin, and stereo separation are almost at the limit of what can be achieved.

It's so good, that the vast majority of so-called high-end preamps, costing up to ten times as much, look pretty pathetic by comparison.

With the A3.2^CR preamp, we have made detailed improvements to in-circuit values and layout, and added an extra choke regulation stage to each channel, thus improving power-supply preformance. There is a definite, but small, improvement over the old A3^CR. The A3.2^CR has inherited all the positive attributes of the older product, but is more immediate and has a greater sense of ease of delivery.

Very high quality phono stage.	MM and MC phono stage with very low noise, accurate RIAA, wide overload margin and great sound quality.
Dual mono.	Better transient response and imaging. Also greater depth of field.
Dual choke regulation.	Incredibly quiet power supply, allowing the circuit to operate to its optimum. Also excludes mains borne interference.
High current and voltage output stage.	Will drive any power amp cable combination up to about 30 feet in length.
