A fully-featured mini AIV preamp with remote
control. The Z-pre breaks through the bulkiness
barrier to provide all a preamp should: separate bass
and treble controls, four pairs of audio inputs,
priority switching, video switching, DC triggering,
control of our Z-series mini-tuner (the TDQ- l 50),
and even RS-232 control for home systems. Check
the impressive specs,and ignore the disgruntled
mutterings of lumbering prehistoric preamps - this

mini is mega where it counts!

What is Parasound's Z-Series? It's the highest-
fidelity set of matched miniatures available today.
Only 2" tall and 9-l/2" wide,Z's can stand alone on
the smallest surface, or rack mount side by side.
Wherever you want a minimum-size system with
maximum-quality sound - on desktop, counter, in-
wall or multi-zone - the Z-Series is your compact

sonic solution.
