Red Rose Music Model Three

A stereo line-level preamplifier providing a perfect companion for the Model 2a. The Silver signature edition of the Model 3a is the perfect partner to the highly acclaimed Model 1 mono-block amplifier or Model 2a Silver Signature stereo amplifier.

Starting with an unusually linear, all vacuum tube signal path and employing edge of the art design and construction techniques, the Model 3 Line stage preamplifier presents a high degree of musical integrity from source to amplification. Every detail from circuit architecture to construction has been studied, tested and retested. Careful auditioning, hand selection, and individual matching of active and passive components, further insures musically faithful reproduction of the source. From the gracefully sculpted exterior to the elegantly conceived and executed circuitry, the Model 3 is a physical extension of our desire to provide the most musically satisfying experience possible.
