Schiit SYS Passive Preamp with Volume Control and 2-Input Switch (Black)

Sys is a simple, 2-input passive preamp, designed and assembled in the USA, that adds no distortion and provides complete volume control. This high-quality, passive preamp works with virtually any line-level source, offering a 2-way switch and a volume knob as its sole features.

The production of Sys is primarily carried out by US companies manufacturing within the country. The chassis is made just minutes from the facility, while the PCBs are produced either locally or in Northern California. This ensures that the vast majority of the total production cost goes to US-based enterprises.

Sys is covered by a limited warranty that spans two years, which is double the warranty period of most products in this price range. This 2-year warranty covers both parts and labor, providing users with a level of assurance and protection for their investment.

The simplicity of Sys is its primary selling point. It is a straightforward device that serves as a volume control and source selector, without the addition of any electronic components or the need for power. This makes it an ideal solution for those who wish to use one of the company's DACs with powered monitors or switch between two sources, such as a DAC and a phono preamp, when using a headphone amplifier.

Sys is not limited to use with the company's own gear; it can be integrated with virtually any line-level source. Its passive design ensures that it does not introduce any distortion, providing users with a clean and uncompromised audio experience.

In summary, Sys is a simple, high-quality, and versatile passive preamp that offers a convenient solution for managing volume and switching between sources. Designed and assembled in the USA, it is backed by a 2-year warranty and is compatible with a wide range of line-level audio equipment.
