I have to admit that I've never even heard of the Erhard Audio Preamps, but they certainly do look interesting. Not to mention two of you recommending them.
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.

mbmi589 posts The best is AUDIO-GD Tube preamp. They are very musical and a great value. koestner677 posts Underwood Hi-fi offers a real warranty if you buy Audio GD through them. They fix it in Georgia, US.
I have a friend in Chicago that loves his Audio GD that he bought from Wally. However, he has also told me that it only performs optimally with a balanced amplifier as it was designed for balanced operation.. My amplifier(s) are single ended only.

Nightfall, Like you, I have been looking for that perfect used tube preamp for under $2000 myself. Been through a few. Currently have an older Audible Illusions preamp that I love. Only pain was, no remote for volume control. I did find a fix. I stream music using a Wiim Pro and the Wiim comes with an optional remote that I purchased for $20. Works perfectly. Love the Audible Illusions even more now.
