Townshend Allegri+ Passive Preamplifier – Pure Sound, Unmatched Clarity
Elevate your audio experience with the Townshend Allegri+ Passive Preamplifier, a masterpiece of engineering that redefines transparency in high-fidelity sound. Priced at £2,400, this compact yet powerful device is the ultimate choice for discerning audiophiles who demand nothing less than perfection from their hi-fi systems. Say goodbye to noise, distortion, and compromise—say hello to music as it was meant to be heard.
Why Choose the Allegri+?
Unlike traditional preamps, the Allegri+ is a purely passive autotransformer design—no power supply, no active components, just unadulterated sound. Its state-of-the-art autotransformers, wound with Townshend’s proprietary Fractal-Wire™ and laminated with ultra-thin mu-metal, deliver astonishing resolution and transparency. From crystal-clear treble to deep, powerful bass, every note is rendered with breathtaking accuracy.
  • Six Input Options: Seamlessly switch between your sources with six gold-plated RCA inputs and a convenient 3.5mm front-panel jack.
  • Precision Volume Control: A 24-position volume control offers tailored intervals to suit any system, ensuring perfect loudness without sacrificing dynamics.
  • Impedance Mastery: Unlike conventional passive controllers, the Allegri+ matches the impedance of your source and amplifier, preserving every ounce of musical energy.
  • Silent Operation: With no capacitors in the signal path and a mute switch for instant quiet, it’s as pure as it gets.
The Sound of Nothing—Except Music
The Allegri+ doesn’t just amplify—it reveals. Experience a soundstage so open and detailed, you’ll hear nuances you never knew existed. It’s DC-coupled for zero signal degradation, and its sleek anodized aluminum chassis houses technology that outperforms preamps costing thousands more. Reviewers rave about its “uncoloured, open sound” and “astonishing transparency”—this is the preamp that lets your gear shine.
Perfect for Any System
Modern source components output around 2 volts with low impedance, and most power amps hit full stride at 1 volt. The Allegri+ bridges that gap effortlessly, eliminating the need for gain while maintaining full dynamics. Pair it with Townshend’s F1 Fractal™ Interconnects for the ultimate sonic synergy—because even one meter of lesser cable can dim its brilliance.
Key Features:
  • Inputs: 6x RCA stereo pairs, 1x 3.5mm jack
  • Outputs: 2x RCA stereo pairs
  • Frequency Response: 8Hz–100kHz (±0.1dB)
  • Distortion: Less than 0.01% at 400Hz, 10V
  • Finish: Elegant silver anodized aluminum
  • Warranty: 5 years of peace of mind
Hear the Difference Today
The Townshend Allegri+ isn’t just a preamp—it’s a revelation. Whether you’re spinning vinyl, streaming hi-res audio, or enjoying a CD, this passive marvel brings you closer to the artist’s vision. At £2,400, it’s an investment in sonic purity that outperforms active preamps at triple the price.

Townshend Audio Seismic Isolation Pods – Elevate Your Sound, Silence the Noise
Unlock the true potential of your audio system with the Townshend Audio Seismic Isolation Pods. Precision-engineered in the UK, these compact yet powerful devices break the acoustic connection between your equipment and structural vibrations, delivering a listening experience that’s clearer, deeper, and more immersive than ever before. Priced for the discerning audiophile, the Seismic Pods are the secret weapon to banish feedback, refine your sound, and keep the peace with your neighbors—all while fitting seamlessly under any piece of gear.
Cut the Feedback, Free the Music
Structure-borne vibrations are the silent enemy of great audio, traveling from speakers to sensitive equipment and muddying your sound with unwanted resonance. The Seismic Isolation Pods put an end to this interference. Positioned under any component—amplifiers, turntables, CD players, or speakers—these pods use a single Seismic Load Cell™ to float your gear above 3Hz, eliminating feedback across the entire frequency spectrum. The result? Enhanced clarity that reveals every detail, improved bass definition that hits with precision, and a wider, deeper soundstage that pulls you into the heart of the music.
Sonic Precision Meets Practical Design
Each Seismic Pod is a marvel of simplicity and performance. A robust Seismic Load Cell™ is paired with a circular foot for stability, while a screw-adjustable top end cap lets you fine-tune height and level uneven loads with ease. Soft felt pads on both ends protect your equipment from scratches and ensure smooth positioning. Whether your valve amp has heavy transformers at the rear or your turntable needs perfect balance, the pods adapt effortlessly—use different load capacities to match asymmetric weight distribution, or add extra pods for heavier setups. With a maximum capacity of 200kg (440lb) using four “F” Pods, and the option to scale up for even greater loads, no system is too big or too small.
Tailored to Every System
The Seismic Isolation Pods come in seven weight-range capacities, from under 1kg to 50kg per pod, ensuring a perfect fit for any piece of equipment:
  • <1kg: Ultra-light components like DACs or streamers.
  • Up to 13.2kg: Medium-weight gear (four “B” Pods).
  • Up to 52.4kg: Heavier systems like amps (four “C” Pods).
  • Up to 200kg: Full setups with four “F” Pods—or more for larger loads.
For uneven loads where the center of gravity isn’t centered, simply adjust the height of each pod or mix and match capacities. When weights overlap in the capacity chart, opt for the stronger Load Cell for easier setup and stability—e.g., four “C” Pods handle up to 52.4kg safely. This flexibility makes the Seismic Pods a universal solution, whether you’re isolating a featherweight phono stage or a hulking power amp.
Hear the Difference, Feel the Peace
The benefits are immediate and profound: bass tightens into punchy, articulate notes; mids open up with breathtaking transparency; and highs sparkle with newfound detail. Your soundstage expands in width and depth, creating a 3D listening experience that’s as close to live as it gets. Better yet, high-level listening becomes neighbor-friendly—vibrations that once rattled floors and walls are stopped in their tracks, letting you crank the volume without the guilt. Audiophiles call it “a revelation” and “the best tweak for the money”—a small investment with a massive payoff.
