The Veloce Audio Litho is a premium line stage tube preamplifier designed and made in the USA. It features a unique low voltage dual mono battery power supply (+/- 40 volts) that isolates the audio circuit from AC mains, significantly reducing noise and interference. The tube gain stage uses paralleled 6H30 tubes combined with a flexible, dead-quiet stepped attenuator for exceptional transparency and resolution. The preamp is housed in a robust chassis made from stress-relieved 6061 aircraft aluminum with a two-piece front panel design. It includes manual switches and a remote control for volume, mute, input selection, and power. Inputs and outputs are available in both single-ended and balanced XLR formats. The power supply and main unit are separate, connected by a detachable umbilical cord, enhancing noise isolation. The Litho has been praised by audio experts for its nearly flawless transparency and lack of sonic coloration, making it a reference-level preamplifier for high-end audio systems.
