The Black Lion Audio B137 MkIII delivers, in a compact format, the much sought-after sound of the famous blue-grey preamp with the red knobs: Just like its predecessor, it features separate controls for the input and output stages, allowing the circuit to be driven beautifully into saturation to suit your taste before the signal is finely levelled. High-quality transformers from Cinemag and a detented gain potentiometer guarantee, on the one hand, a rich and warm sound and, on the other, a pleasant levelling experience with guaranteed reproducibility. Anyone looking for a classic sound will find it here!
