FET-9E

The FET Nine from Thereshold as well as the FET Ten were the last of the Nelson Pass designed preamps to emerge from the original Threshold Company co-founded by Nelson Pass. The Fet 9 is a high end preamp of extraordinary build and sonics. This preamp has few peers in the lofty world of high end. It competes quite well with preamps from Krell,Levinson,Klyne and Coda. This preamp has provisions for three line inputs, plus an absolutely stellar phono section and can accommodate two tape units as well. Dual channel, non-Inverting, field effect transistor preamplifier designed to provide gain and equalization for all moving and stationary coil “magnetic” cartridges and conntrol and routing functions for high level signals. Gain, impedance, and capacitive cartridge loading characteristics are internally selected. Three high level inputs are provided plus record and monitoring for two recorders. Front panel controls provide program selection, record signal routing, monitor signal selection, channel balance, and audio level.
