A preamp is a key component to experiencing true sound and a critical element to playing recorded music,.  "Separate" components, as they are sometimes referred to" provide the listener with superior performance over an all-in-one receiver.  Since each component is separate, the signal path is untainted by the other devices and functions.  In addition, each component has it's own individual power supply to deliver stable current flow at just about any sound level.

THE OSD AUDIO PRE-1 Professional Home Stereo/Home Recording Pre-Amplifier is a mid-grade, affordable preamp that adds front-end system control to two or multi-channel audio systems and home recording systems.

The PRE-1 provides four selectable unbalanced analog RCA inputs, AUX1, AUX2, CD/DVD and the all important PHONO input, which will allow direct connection of a vinyl turntable to the preamp. 

The front panel also features three tone controls: Bass, Mid and Treble, plus Balance, Master Volume and Loudness Contour Knobs with min to max adjustment settings.  Additional front panel controls include Power, Mono/Stereo, Low Filter, Mute Buttons as well as another hard to find feature, a tape loop switch. 

Finally there is also a ¼” microphone input jack on the front panel with adjustable mic level control, ideal for musicians or if you just want to sing along with the music.

The PRE-1 includes a 2-year warranty.
