A discussion of preamplifier performance criteria with respect to audible differences between preamps is given. A series of highly dynamic tests is given to a good quality preamplifier and the distortion noted. A new preamplifier topology is presented which does not have nearly as much dynamic error and also performs well in steady-state tests.
