WELCOME TO FREYA

Freya is a no-compromise, ultra-high-end balanced preamp cleverly 

disguised by a low price tag. You won’t find any volume-control 

chips or other shortcuts in Freya—just uber-quality techniques like 

a relay-switched stepped attenuator and all-triode gain stage—you 

know, just like what’s used in the most expensive audio gear.

IN THE BOX

 

   

The following is required by the roughly 9,542 government agencies and regulations we have to comply with. If you have 

 

    some common sense, they should seem pretty straightforward. In any case, read these instructions before proceeding 

 

    farther, follow all instructions, and heed all warnings. Or else! 

1. If you don’t know how to install audio devices, get a qualified professional to help.

2. Never use this device near water, and clean only with a dry cloth. 

3. Assure adequate ventilation, do not block any ventilation openings, 

or place near heat sources.

4. Use only the supplied power cord or suitable replacement. Route cords away 

from traffic areas and protect them from being pinched. Unplug the cord from 

the outlet if the apparatus is unused for a long period of time.

5. To prevent electric shock, do not use the plug with an extension cord, receptacle, 

or outlet unless blades can be fully inserted.

6. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Service is required when the 

device has been damaged, including cord or plug damage, liquid has been spilled 

or objects have fallen into the device, the device has been exposed to rain or moisture, 

does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE 

OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE
