Je l'ai depuis plusieurs mois. Avec un ampli de puissance Atoll. Le son est fluide et sensible à la moindre modification sur le système que ce soit l'ajout d'un dac, un changement de câble et surtout les AOP. C'est les sparkos que j'ai.

Class-A Discrete preamplifiers LM49860 - 130dB SNR
Gustard P26 is an advanced preamplifier / volume controller / souce selector (3 Inputs). It will delight audiophiles looking for a fully balanced circuit with volume control to drive a power amplifier in any demanding audio system.
It offers an innovative option to configure separately the input gain from the output gain. This is a particularly useful feature that allows operation even with devices that have very different specifications.
This preamplifier has a circuit designed for fully balanced applications. Thus the inputs, the volume control, the preamplification stage are all fully balanced with no conversion stage at all.
It uses two high-performance stereo LME49860 operational-amplifiers mounted on DIP-8 support (removable). The latter can then be renewed / changed in order to adapt the overall sound signature. The amplification stage is hybrid, that is to say it relies on OPA as well as discrete components subcircuits.
The output stages are constructed from discrete components with differential signaling architecture, which ensures excellent stability in output signal.
Thanks to a relay matrix driven by a logic circuit ALTERA MAX, the P26 is able to provide a constant and accurate volume on each channel.
This type volume of control combines the best of both worlds with : the precision and finesse of pure analog attenuation as well as the confort of digital control and the ability to change the volume remotely.
Gustard P26 carry its own linear regulated power supply with high speed low noise rectifier.
It also benefits from a custom ultra-low noise discrete voltage regulator .
The power supply finally uses a 50W toroidal transformer specifically developed for properly supplying this circuit.
A selector on the back of the unit toggles between 230V / 110V power-grids.
The P26 comes with an infrared remote control. This remote enables the user to access the volume, mute and source selection functions.
WARNING: In order to operate the remote control, please press and hold the AMP button on the remote control for 4 seconds.
All control are also available on the front panel. An ON / OFF button, a control button to select the source and configure the input / output gain. Finally, a rotary controller is used to adjust the volume level.
The OLED monitor screen shows real-time the active source, the current volume level and the in / out gain parameters.
