Magnum and Super Magnum preamplifiers
Totally transparent yet rich with detail, the Rogue Ninety-Nine
preamplifier sets a new benchmark in ultra high performance audio.
Designed and engineered without compromise, the Ninety-Nine boasts
ruler flat response, tremendous bandwidth, huge dynamic range, and
vanishingly low levels of distortion. However, extraordinary test-bench
specifications tell only part of the story. While tube preamplifiers
are widely regarded as providing the most natural and appealing
sound, the Ninety-Nine preamplifier must be auditioned in person
to be fully appreciated. The smooth yet detailed sound of the Ninety-Nine
can only be described as remarkable, with a presence that will bring
your system to new heights of sonic performance.
From a technical standpoint, the Rogue Ninety-Nine utilizes four
6SN7 tubes configured in a mu-follower circuit topology. An analog
remote volume control enhances the listening experience without
compromising sonic integrity, and a logical turn on procedure protects
downstream components while prolonging tube life and performance.
The massive power supply includes a toroidal transformer in a separate
chassis, high-speed HEXFRED diodes, seven separate regulators and
a toroidal high voltage transformer. An uncompromised "leading
edge" design housed in an elegant and refined package. Truly
... An Intelligent Indulgence.
