Django question

Hi just built one. Previous preamplifier was a Hovland HP 100.

The passive in my opinion is superior. Dynamically it is still superb for a passive and you are immediately hit when you first hear it of how immediately more correct the music sounds. I have now also bought the silver version of the stevens and billington transformers with remote contol.

hi the django as far as i am aware comes with the silver version. the lead out wires are all silver. I have the silver version of the Bent which is where you get the remote control and the difference in sound with the django is negligible, which leads me to suspect that it is silver. But Bent are not at the present producing anymore although i understand you can get the remote fitted to the django via them.

However it is now becoming apparent from the many threads I have been reading that there is a significant lack of bass drive and focus affecting delineation of instruments.This was a recurrent theme in the threads. So I investigated further, there was an apparent plethora of cheap small garage shop preamps that are building up reputations of astounding performance capabilities around us. I jumped almost blind for the $700 Space tec lab 113 and it did just that.
