*MBL N-51 Integrated Amplifier
MANY audiophiles insist on splitting an amplifier into its constituent pre- and power- components so as to ensure sonic purity. For decades this has been the received wisdom in hi-fi circles. And why not? After all, having separate power supplies, for example, for the two functions should in theory result in better sound.
