Best Preamp for under $1750.00

I have done a very complete search for a great preamp and I have found the New Consonance Cyber-222Mk-2 to be excellent and better than some at double the price the 6sn7 tube is a classic tube , as well as the 5ar4 rectifier tube.This preamplifier weighs in at over 32 lbs
and has a seperate outboard power supply, with better parts quality such as Auricap capacitors and 1% metalfilm resistors. From top to bottom it is very well balanced and superb in the heart of the midband as well as Thunderous bass
I used $2500 as a price point and considering they even lowered the price to $1500 , this is a no brainer for any
smart buyer. To up the ante even more I put a quality VooDoo Silver dragon power cord, Hifi tuning Silver fuses
and all 1950 Sylvania Chrome dome tubes and the Mullard 5ar4 Recitier tube .I can honesty say this preamp now sounds glorious and one of the best finds I have even made.

I agree on the joule electra la 100. I have also never seen anyone post saying anything bad about a blue circle product. I have not heard one but would like to...

Hi,

Well, I don't know about the "best" preamp, but two you might consider are the Juicy Music peach which has no phono, or SAS Labs 10A. The 10A for years was a major mainstay among audio mags. Now, one aI have heard of lately is the YS audio Symphony Plus or the Minimax Tube preamp. None of them you can go wrong with. That Minimax with the 200 dollar mod, is supposed to be a major giant killer. Anyway, there are a few suggestions to look at.

Where can you find a Consonance Cyber 222 Mk II for $1500?
Does anyone know how the 6SN7s are wired (SRPP? parallel?)
Thanks.

Got a Ming Da MC2A3 myself and it seems to be a pretty good deal.
Bass is a bit loose though.

This guy asked for advice 7 years ago. I'm sure he waited for more opinions. =) that's supposed to be a happy face, 1st time I've ever tried.
