Budget preamp recommendation...besides Schiit.

What are some other budget friendly preamps besides Schiit, the king of budget electronics? With similar quality of build and sound, both solid state or tube options would be welcome.

Thanks,

Mike

CJs are tough to find at a reasonable price though. The preamp is the most important component in your system, choose carefully

No other component influences the overall character of your electronics as the preamp. Stretch the budget a little and buy one that you won’t have the urge to upgrade anytime soon. Buy once, cry once !
