Description
The 3000 Series and thus the Boulder 3010 Preamplifier have become synonymous with the ultimate in sound quality; a level of performance reserved for only the finest audio systems in the world. But traditional thought says that the more features and functions added to a preamplifier, the more of an affect they have on sound, right?
In the 3010 Boulder’s engineers have proven traditional wisdom wrong and achieved something monumental. The 3010 is easily the greatest performing preamplifier in the history of the company. It’s also the most flexible preamp we’ve ever designed. Which very likely makes it the finest preamplifier available.
