@steakster is 110% right. That Audio Horizons preamp is going to be a best buy for sound quality based on your budget. I owned one much like that one as well as many other tube preamps with retail prices up to $12,0000. The AH is the best of the bunch with with exception being the TRL Dude completely tricked out.
Best Used Tube Based Preamp $2k Or Under?
As the title says, I am pondering my best options for purchasing a tube based preamp for $2k or under. Must have a remote!
Your opinions, thoughts, and expertise would be greatly appreciated. If I was spending more, I would know most of the best choices, but I'm on unfamiliar ground at this price limit. But sometimes, you can only do what you can do.
Thanks for any help.
