Czech audio equipment manufacturer Remton Audio has unveiled its latest offering, the Remton 481 tube phono preamplifier. This exclusive piece is set to be highly sought after, with production limited to just thirty units. The scarcity stems from the use of New Old Stock (NOS) Tesla resistors, renowned for their impeccable performance and minimal deviation of only 0.25 dB across a wide frequency range from 20 Hz to 50 kHz.
The Remton 481 builds upon the legacy of the flagship V-LCR model, streamlining its design by omitting the LCR system for RIAA correction. This refinement ensures that audiophiles receive a purer, more focused sound without compromising on the high-end performance expected from Remton’s top-tier products. Available in both black and silver finishes, the 481 caters to a variety of aesthetic preferences while maintaining its sophisticated presence.
