System consolidation means I no longer need this Saga S preamp.  This is a high value, great sounding preamp that I continue to use in my main system paired with an Asgard 3 as the active output stage

If you are not familiar, the Saga S is a solid state passive preamp with active buffer output and stepped resistor volume control.   Comes with remote control.  

Original box and manual.

Saga S is just like Saga+—without the tube. Like Saga+, Saga S gives you all the uber-high-end, no-compromises features you need in a preamp, including a real relay-switched volume control, a switchable DC-coupled discrete JFET buffer, and a custom remote control. 


Saga S: The Solid-State Saga

What is Saga S? It’s simple—it’s basically a Saga+ with a discrete JFET buffer stage in place of the tube stage. We understand some people don’t want to deal with tubes, so we went ahead and made one that was 100% solid state. 

It’s Your Choice: Passive or Active

Go ahead. Run Saga S in passive mode for a convenient remote-controlled passive preamp that’s ideal for many systems. If you need to drive long cables, switch it to the discrete, DC-coupled JFET buffer mode.

Easiest Relay-Switched Volume, Ever

The benefits of a relay-switched stepped attenuator for volume are clear. Compared to a potentiometer, they give you essentially perfect channel matching and near-unmeasurable distortion. However, some preamps with relay-stepped attenuators confuse you with buttons and screens. Not Saga S. Saga S has a volume knob that works just like a volume knob—just grab and turn. And if you use the remote control, the motorized potentiometer changes to match the remote setting. 

Perfect Companion to Our DACs

Want a remote-controlled system to interface your digital gear with the rest of your system? Stack Saga S and Bifrost (or any other of our DACs) for a true no-compromise remote-controlled system.

Designed and Built in California

By “designed and built in California" this is what we mean: the vast majority of the total production cost of Saga S—chassis, boards, transformers, assembly, etc—goes to US companies manufacturing in the US. Our chassis are made minutes from our facility. Our PCBs are done just over the hill from us, or done in NorCal.
