Best Line Stage Preamp?


I just brought a KR Antares with 842VHD Amp, but do not know which preamp will match the KR, tube or soild state, I listen mostly classical music, thanks.

I'm currently driving my Caanry power amps with an Audion Premier line stage. It uses a pair of 6922s, and has seen off a couple of good SS units and a transformer-based passive in my system. It's not crazy money, either.

If you've got bux, think about the CTC Blowtorch.
Hard to answer "best" type questions, since most people's sampling of available products is small or shortlived. I can say that I love my CAT Ultimate and prefer it to some preamps I have owned in the past, including: Audible Illusions 3A, McCormack Passive (TL1?), and several ARC preamps I have used in the past. You need to make auditions with CAT on your must listen list.
