Reference Thinking, Real-World Price: Exposure 3510 Preamplifier

The Exposure 3510 Preamplifier is a high-end British preamp inspired by the award-winning 5010 reference design — and built to punch well above its price. A new gain stage with high-quality relays and an oversized toroidal power supply deliver clarity and quiet that belong to far dearer components. Hi-Fi News gave the 3510 pre/power its "Outstanding" badge, noting a design in which "simplicity has been elevated almost to an art form."

Discrete, Quiet, and Beautifully Simple

Inside, discrete transistors in the line stage and an optimised PCB layout keep crosstalk low, while a carefully designed hybrid power supply achieves very low residual noise. The result is a preamplifier that gets out of the music's way. Controls are refreshingly minimal — no cluttered menus, just clean, intuitive operation and a newly designed remote that switches inputs, mutes, and controls volume from your chair.

Configure It Your Way

Plenty of inputs are provided, with slot-in options for onboard MM phono, MC phono, or a high-resolution DAC — so you build exactly the preamp your system needs and nothing you don't. The aluminium front plate and chassis aid cooling and keep noise at bay, in black or titanium.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I add a phono stage or DAC to the 3510 preamplifier?

Yes. The 3510 preamp accepts slot-in option boards for moving-magnet phono, moving-coil phono, or a high-resolution DAC, so you can tailor it to your sources.

What power amplifier should I pair it with?

The Exposure 3510 stereo power amplifier or 3510 mono power amplifiers are the natural partners, forming the "Outstanding"-rated 3510 pre/power system.

Does it come with a remote control?

Yes — a newly designed remote lets you switch inputs, mute, and adjust volume from your listening position.
