Title: Soul Sister collectors
Post by: Ericmaze on May 21, 2024, 06:23:38 AM
I've a friend who has been using a soul sister preamp for quite some time and is finally looking to try something different. He knows I'm a bottlehead fan and asked me to look into it. I couldn't find much about this - other than it was mostly offered as a plan and not commercialized, maybe due to transformer cost. I've shared a few photos from the pre and was wondering if anyone here would be interested in sharing some thoughts or advice I can pass along as they are planning to list it on the used market.

I would definitely recommend against shipping that.  I do believe that the cost and lead time on the Magnequest line output transformer was just enough to prevent the Soul Sister from going into production, but that was well before my time.
