HI All,
 
The latest issue of The Absolute Sound hits the newsstands and mailboxes today! And inside starting on page 80 is a review of our Apex Pinnacle. It is written by Dick Olsher! Dick reviewed it as a preamp and also spent some time listening as a headphone amp. Read the review for the full picture - Here are a couple of quotes to pique your interest...
 
“It was evident in just a quick minute that the Pinnacle was an extraordinary preamp. Its level of clarity and soundstage transparency place it firmly in the top echelon of line preamps”
Dick Olsher, The Absolute Sound, July/August 2011
 
“Its overall soundstage presentation exhibited considerable grandeur: a wide and deep 3-D perspective with rock stable image outlines.”
Dick Olsher, The Absolute Sound, July/August 2011
 
 

 
If you were thinking of ordering the Pinnacle, now would be the time before the line gets too long!

Looking forward to reading the TAS review.  I didn't get my copy today, maybe tomorrow.

Cool to see some of our beloved community designers getting wider recognition through TAS, even if it is a review as a preamp. Pete does some extraordinary design and I'm sure this is no different.

I hope some of the mainstream speaker audiophiles will try this out, I think they might be stunned by this product. I'm sure it can far, far outperform other preamps around that price range which are little more than fancy cases and big names.

Has anyone received their copy of TAS yet?  I haven't.

I received the promo copies of The Absolute Sound when I posted this thread but just received my subscription copy this weekend. I am sure that most of them will be delivered this week. Happy reading!!!

Very nice review. Does anybody know the stats on this amp (how much watts into ohms)? I havent seen it posted anywhere.

I must be at the end of the list as mine still hasn't arrived.  I can't believe it made it to Montana but not central Illinois.

Hang in there Audio Addict - I know it has been mailed and it is well worth waiting for!

It finally arrived,  OUTSTANDING review,  Congratulation to Todd and Pete for pulling out all the stops when creating the Pinnacle.

Mine arrived today as well. The left side of the mailing label, including the first two characters of each address line, was cut off. Wonder how widespread this is. The mag had to go back to the local post office to get a handwritten addie to deliver.
