Ypsilon PST 100 Anniversary Pre-Amplifier World Premier
Marking its 30th birthday, Ypsilon will unveil its special PST 100 Anniversary Edition preamplifier at Audio Show Deluxe.
Greece-based Ypsilon Electronics proudly states that the PST 100 Anniversary pre-amp was developed to celebrate the 30-year milestone since the company was formed. Its aim was to improve the performance of its SE pre-amp.
In addition to the SE model's specification and retaining the same C3m tubes, one per channel, and rectifier tube, we are told that the transformer attenuators in the PST 100 Anniversary are made with custom nanocrystalline core material.
Using silver wound nanocrystalline transformers at input and output is said to have "a special ultra pure topology in the active gain stage." Meanwhile, everything remains point-to-point wired with ultra-pure silver wire.
Furthermore, Ypsilon states that the new pre-amp uses "only high-quality film capacitors (no electrolytics)" in the power supply and also "very high inductance" double C-core amorphous choke filter.
Finally, the front display features Ypsilon's newest design, with large characters and selectable colours from the pre-amp's settings menu.
Further details, including pricing, have yet to be revealed. However, we'll let you know when they are, so stay tuned.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
