To see how far the PS.30R could be taken - this is what we came up with. The PS.30RDT has become the phono stage which other stages are compared against. The PS.30RDT is not only a higher specified and closer tolerance version of the PS.30R but is electrically dual mono in design from the power inlet onwards! Every magazine that has reviewed the PS.30RDT has loved it, comparing it to the best of valve/tubes but without the pitfalls, namely: noise, microphony, bloated bass and image blurr. They have also compared it to many stages costing many times its price and the PS.30RDT has always come out on top. The PS.30RDT is used in more than 30 archiving libraries worldwide due to its amazing resolving power. It is also used in several magazine reviewer systems worldwide and is now a Whest Audio best seller.

Read Full Review: Stereotimes Whest Audio PS.30RDT Phono Preamplifier
The Whest PS.30RDT is an extraordinary phono preamplifier by any yardstick. It is a grainless, noiseless piece of gear that provides all the dynamic shadings, vivid imagery, and fine detailing that allows reproduced music to sound real. It would be nice if my lower-priced Nova Phonomena could render dynamic contrasts and inner detail as ably as the Whest, but unfortunately such adroit performance is not available from any lower-priced units I have tried.
