The M8 Signature pre amplifier is available in line only and MM phono equipped versions. It features one balanced XLR input, which interfaces via a high quality silver wired input transformer. It's a substantial two box design, with one chassis for the power supply and the other for the audio stages.

For best sound and stereo separation there is an individual stepped attenuator volume control per channel.

The line only version uses an ECC82/6189 and 6463 valve with a 6X5 valve rectified power supply, which includes and ECL82 for voltage regulation and a 5651 as a voltage stabiliser. 

Silver wiring, tantalum resistors, along with Audio Note Silver foil in oil capacitors and Audio Note electrolytic capacitors ensures that the signal passes only through very high quality components. The circuit outputs through 55% Nickel Iron C-Core transformers with silver primary and secondary windings. 

The phono version includes an exceptional phono stage, with an EQ circuit designed around three 5670 valves.
