WestminsterLab Quest Preamplifier

from $25,100.00

The Quest aims to be the perfect preamplifier to accompany the Rei amplifier and the cables lineup, completing the connection between your audio source and speakers. It sets out to redefine how a preamplifier contributes to the system and extracts the maximum potential from both the recorded music and the music reproduction system.

​

During the inception of the project, we extensively questioned the role of the preamplifier in an audio system and challenged whether it is truly necessary. We sought to understand the qualities that an added stage can bring and how it can improve the outcome. With a fresh start, we thoroughly investigated the relationship between the source and the amplifier, carefully examining each section of the preamplifier to improve every part and explore the synergy between them.

​

The Quest represents our dedication to optimizing the preamplifier's performance and its integration within the system. We have pushed the boundaries of conventional design and reimagined the possibilities. By meticulously refining each aspect, we aim to enhance the signal path and uncover new levels of performance. 
 

Join us on this sonic journey as we challenge the status quo, redefine the preamplifier's role, and unlock the true potential of your music reproduction system.
