How many audio salon's have you gone into where the power amp and pre amp was plugged into the stock factory power cord?
My gods!! This proves absolutely nothing and I cannot, I say again, cannot believe I haven't thought of nothing before.
Can someone help me decide between an amp and an integrated amp?
I’m looking to upgrade to Maggies, so I know I need more power than my Creek 4240 SE has. I’ve been recommended a Classe CAP-151 integrated for $800 and a PS Audio Stellar 300 which lists for $1500, but they are giving a trade in of full original value for your old amp (800), which is an awesome deal. I have an IFI Pro headphone amp for a preamp.
Is there an inherent value in having separates versus integrated? Is there a problem using the headphone amp as a preamp? Has anyone done that trade in deal, offered out of Boulder? The Creek sells for less online.
Thanks for your help!
