brian charney makes the pure power battery power supply for the shigaraki. his audiogon member name is "briancharney". as for supratek, there is no local dealer anywhere. they're pretty much a one man operation out of australia. it's a leap of faith decision you have to make. i'm glad i made the decision. i intend to upgrade to their top of the line linestage (the cabernet) sometime next year i hope. you can search the "preamp deal of the century" thread here to learn all about supratek.

i'm currently using a shigaraki transport / dac with my dB99 speakers. i've found the 47 lab setup to be the most natural and organic sounding digital front end i've ever heard. one of the best "tweaks" for the shigaraki setup is the pure power battery power supply. it brings you so much "closer" to the music.

if you're interested in a new pre, i'd suggest a supratek preamp, but i'm biased as i use a chardonnay and i'm currently awaiting a pair of malbec monoblocks. i can't wait to receive the malbecs as i'm currently powering my dB99's with a denon avr-3806
