Wow! Brings back memories. Bought and still have the db-1 and db-6[or is it 9]. My first foray into "real" HiFi! Then I slid down the slippery slope of "upgrade" looking for nirvana getting rid of my AR speakers for Rogers LS3/5A's. It has never stopped. I remember the db pre-amp [and amp] as clean, clear almost x-rayish with very little depth, but that could also be a result of the Denon table with an Empire MC which replaced my PE table and Shure. I eventually replaced the little db pre-amp with CJ and ARC "stuff" and the lush sound of tubes. May have to dig out the little pre-amp and see what it sounds like.

 Call DB Systems at 603-899-5121 or email dbsystems@attglobal.net. I don't believe they have a web site but they will send a price list and description of their products. I use their phono preamp. The DB-2a went for $140 a few years ago.

I agree with Owens on this one ,the little pre-amp was clear as a bell and you could hear all that was on the recording with it ,but had little depth.The amp had the same sound as the pre-amp. the bass was very deep and tight. The DB1a can be updated to the DB1b, still a great little pre-amp.
