Delta PRE is the foundation of your perfect system.

Designed to connect to a range of sources, Delta PRE will extract the highest performance from every recording, whether analog or digital.

Pre-amplifiers provide clean and controlled signals to the power stage. Both precision and perfection are required, and are delivered by Delta PRE.

  • Network, USB, AES/EBU, coax and optical inputs with optional HDMI
  • XLR and RCA inputs
  • Short signal paths to minimize signal interference
  • Custom-made Navcom® feet absorb and reduce vibrations
  • High-performance onboard MC/MM Phono stage supports up to two phono inputs
  • Rhodium-plated connectors for excellent and secure contacts

CONTROL 

Audiophiles, recording professionals and equipment reviewers trust Classé amplifiers as a source of sonic truth. Delta Series allows listeners to experience that truth in their own homes.

Every detail of the Delta Series is perfected by hand in our unique production facility in Japan to deliver powerful, natural, expansive sound with minimal noise or distortion.

  • 0.25dB volume step precision to find your perfect sound level
  • Digital domain tone control with Delta PRE Tilt control
  • Support for mono or stereo subwoofers for better control of bass
  • Selectable frequency and slope control
  • Advanced five-band digital domain parametric equalization
  • Digital bypass mode available to all analog sources
  • Pass through mode

DESIGN 

As the component you're most likely to touch, the design of Delta PRE matches its exceptional acoustic performance.

Any interaction with Delta PRE is pure pleasure, from the superb cool-to-the-touch materials, to the precise tactile feedback of the volume control.

Touchscreen control reflects Delta PRE's outstanding capability: pure analog clarity, advanced digital precision, confident, capable power and expressive sound.

  • Harmony between minimal design and unrivaled performance
  • Luxurious anodized aluminum body
  • Adjustable brightness, responsive touchscreen display
  • Perfectly complements other components in the Delta family
