Description :
The PV3 was the first vacuum tube preamp available as a kit since the 1960’s. Priced at $399 Assembled or $299 Kit, the PV3 was the ideal choice for those who loved music but were faced with the realities of a low cost budget. Cost was kept low by minimizing features, not compromising quality. The RIAA circuit used 1% tolerance parts and metal film resistors were used in critical parts of the circuitry. The PV3 delivered the tonal balance and dynamics that conrad-johnson was now famous for.
