Monsalvat PRE-2

Reference Digital Preamplifier

Verity Audio’s Monsalvat PRE-2 digital preamplifier is directly derived from our Monsalvat’s breathtaking PRO-6, sharing the same topology, quality parts, and configuration. However, it’s built into a single chassis that includes its power supply. The PRE-2 combines the functions of a preamplifier and a DAC. The preamplifier’s architecture features state-of-the-art ADC/DAC circuitry and total galvanic isolation between the analog and digital domains, ensuring they remain perfectly isolated.

Dots in a row

The PRE-2 reaches the highest performance a “pure analog” preamplifier can attain while still offering the advantages you would expect of a reference digital signal processor. The PRE-2 includes both analog and digital inputs. Analog inputs are digitized at a very high sampling rate and fed into the digital domain for processing, while digital inputs are processed directly. The results of digital processing are then transferred to the analog domain to be reproduced with perfect integrity.

The result is an astonishing ultra-low-noise preamplifier offering pure sound transparency and fluidity, extended bandwidth, and an ultra-high dynamic range. The new Verity PRE-2 redefines preamplification thanks to its advanced technologies.

Some of our proudest achievements are our bolder innovations in design, such as rear-firing woofers and separate satellite and woofer cabinets. We believe our latest addition, which was inspired from the insulation platforms found between the various sections in many of our loudspeakers, will also prove its worth.

Covid Time Verity

High-End Audio at the time of COVID

As a music lover and long-time audiophile, this reclusion time was an opportunity to rediscover the embellishment music can bring in someone’s life. It was my moment to rediscover albums that I haven’t played for years.
