Beginner money for separate Amp/Preamp for Hm Th
I know I’m opening a can of worms. I’m not getting used-even though I know there are great deals here. I have a Denon AVR 4806 ~12yrs old. I want to move into separates.
Here’s the hard & fast... Under $5k.
1) I need a preamp for the normal HT & my tt. Friends say keep the Denon for switching & radio. How?? 2) I have a Jolida JD9 MK II phono preamp (keeping). I love it.
3) I like the sound ability to really punch. Friends keep saying SS for mid/twetters & tube for low end.
4) I know there are bazillions of main to boutique brands. Can you keep recommendations to something I have a good chance of auditioning in Chicago please?
My speakers are a couple steps up from entry JM Labs. Don’t tailor anything to that. Replacing in a couple yrs. I’ll appreciate the real advice & the trolls are the price of admission. Thank you.
