Introducing the EMM Labs PREi Preamplifier

At EMM Labs, we’ve always understood that the analog preamplifier is the heart of a true reference-grade music system. Its job is simple—but critical: preserve musical truth with absolute purity. For over two decades, this belief has pushed us to redefine what’s possible in high-end analog design.

From the pioneering Meitner PA6i, to the multi-award-winning EMM Labs PRE2, to the flagship EMM Labs Pre, our team has continuously advanced the state of the art.

The new PREi represents the pinnacle of that evolution—our most refined and advanced preamplifier to date.

Uncompromising Circuit Design

  • Engineered to deliver unmatched transparency and musical realism, the PREi is built around:
  • Fully discrete, dual-balanced signal paths for absolute channel integrity
  • Sophisticated contactless switching for silent, ultra-reliable operation
  • Software-driven MVControl³ all-analog volume control, enabling precise, transparent level management
  • Meitner Audio Architecture (MAA) circuits designed fully in-house
  • Third-generation MXPower³ power system for exceptional stability, noise performance, and transient response
  • Custom MCeraTek ceramic circuit boards for superior low-level detail preservation
  • Proprietary equalization and Class A amplification for effortless musicality

Crafted Without Compromise

Every element of the PREi is meticulously designed and manufactured in Canada, housed within a precision-machined aluminum chassis and operated through an intuitive touch-panel interface.

The result is a preamplifier of extraordinary clarity—one that simply disappears, leaving only the music.
