RE: Yes, dual mono inside ONE chassis.. Though it is a bit harder to spot while zooming through 'used' adverts..

One would have to research a lot of companies to find the buried stats caiming 'dual mono' design...

I simply google internal images for units and usually find them.

But I would guess most high end manufacturers would make some claims to a dual mono construction. Just to get crosstalk stats down.

Are you suggesting that *most* of those are misrepresenting the product with specious "claims"? It is far too easy to verify.

Adding in circuit designs which claim dual mono internal construction leaves a huge field fraught with design skimping and outright lies in a true dual mono field.

Perhaps. Fortunately, I purchase gear from well known and established companies like Audio Research where there is certainly not any "design skimping".

As for the GamuT unit first discussed, it may be dual mono but it appears to be fully op amp based. I do consider that "design skimping". :)

There are other 'dual mono' preamps. Nelson Pass makes on, so did Conrad Johnson - Smelly_Socks 08:05:39 06/01/16 (4)
