Alan Sircom’s original May 2022 hi-fi+ issue 207 review of the L-6500 is thoughtful, thorough, and enthusiastic:
 

“However, it’s also easy for a company to become so focused on the big hitter projects in the line-up that the all-important first rung on the ladder gets overlooked or underdeveloped. That is patently not the case here; Allnic’s KS Park puts as much energy in getting products like the L-6500 line preamplifier ‘right’ as he does with the leaders of the pack. It’s hard not to be impressed by the Allnic L-6500; it’s well built, sounds great and has an excellent balance of making music sound good no matter the quality of the recording. While the Allnic L-6500 is far too much of a sophisticate to shout for itself, that’s something to shout about!”

This review set the stage for the L-6500 to be awarded a Product of the Year designation by hi-fi+, a further testament to what we think is one fantastic piece of over-achieving audio gear.

​

Mr. Sircom’s point in his original review is one we’ve made here before, too: all Allnic products are designed and built to KS Park’s high standards to provide, above all, enjoyment of the music. It doesn’t matter which unit in the line-up meets your fancy and budget, you will be getting exceptionally well-designed circuitry, rock-solid build, superior ergonomics, gorgeous industrial design and – always – the music.

MSRP: $11,880 (Note: one Silver chassis unit on discount, email inquiry)
