A short citation from the web site:
"The signal path is simple and very short. On the input is a Transformer-Like-Amplifier (TLA) which uses extremely low noise, discrete components to avoid the winding resistances, inductance restrictions, and non-linear magnetization curves of even the highest-grade iron core materials found in transformers. This functions as a sort of prepping for the actual input transformer that follows in the signal path so that the transformer sees a constant level and impedance, maximizing the sonic benefits while minimizing the weaknesses of a transformer-based front-end."
So the pre is like the green amp followed by the input transformer then some other circuitry followed by the output transformer. I've tried (twice actually, in green pre thread) to suggest people trying to replace the diff amp in green pre with a transformer but so far nobody to seems to think like Robert. What kind of transformer would be best in green circuit? I'd like to actually try something like that eventually..
