About the Tautoro
The Plinius Tautoro is a high-performance stereo preamplifier designed to faithfully reproduce music with excellent dynamics and detail. It features five line inputs with both balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA connections, dual outputs for bi-amping or multi-room setups, and a home theatre bypass loop. The unit offers adjustable gain settings (50dB, 56dB, 60dB, 66dB) and adjustable load options (47k, 470R, 100R, 47R, 22R ohms), allowing it to accommodate virtually any high-end audio configuration. Sonically, it is noted for lively performance with excellent pace, rhythm, and timing (PRAT), strong slam, and a balance between micro and macrodynamics. It compares favorably with other high-end preamps, offering a slightly more forward presentation and better bass richness than some competitors. The Tautoro is suitable for use with top-tier components and delivers a compelling sound without requiring an exorbitant investment.
