Title: New Member and Future Owner of a Moreplay Preamp.
Post by: AG on August 12, 2023, 08:26:30 AM: Hi.
My name is Andre, I just place an order for my Moreplay kit preamp.

I live in central Florida and like analog sound. This preamp will be my first tube equipment and the expectancy is high.
Play a TT, made by me and some McIntosh gear. I believe the Moreplay will be great addition for my record collection.

Cheers from Fla.

Andre.

I am reading the instructions now. The instructions are really good, there is not room for misunderstood but we are humans after all!!

Will keep the assembly process here. I know will be another one, but a nice product like this one is always good to see. I cant wait to start!

Post by: Dzrout on August 21, 2023, 06:02:49 PM: I donâ€™t want to like it. Because itâ€™s cheap. And not fancy at all. But god damn.

I have tired so many preamps and integrated amps. NOTHING compares to it at all. I have a $3000 integrated amp in right now and the Moreplay on a $300 Hafler Power amp blows this thing out of the water. Just like everything else!!

Itâ€™s amazing!

Post by: Cary on August 22, 2023, 04:40:21 AM: Another suggestion that I always give is take your time assembling the kit and check and double check that you are installing the correct part. My Moreplay is from the first run of the kits, great sounding preamp.

Post by: adeep42 on August 22, 2023, 09:16:42 AM: I agree with Dzrout. The good folks at BH wanted to make a simple and easy to assemble line pre-amp. Like some other great pieces of gear, they proved that less can be much more than just more. I believe that the Moreplay will supersede the Crack as the the Bottlehead symbol of greatness!

Hi,
My wire stripper is an old Ideal industry, so far is working well. a long tweezer is available too. Fluke voltmeter (30 years old at least and work like a champ)
