This is my review of the Hairball Gold pre. I built this from the DIY kit.

This review will be mainly in two parts - a brief review of the DIY aspect and the actual use of the preamp.

Hi all,

I'm interested in building one of these 1176 clones from Hairball Audio. Has anyone else done it and can they comment on the sound compared to the original?
