Having owned both, I would strongly suggest that you get a DNA-1. I agree with Soix, Steve's upgrades take a very good amp and turn it into a great unit. You will want to take a little care with preamp matching.
Conrad Johnson Sonographe sa400 or McCormack DNA-1
I'm looking for a new amp. I currently have an Adcom 5500 and was wondering if a Conrad Johnson Sonographe sa400 or McCormack DNA-1 would be an improvement in sound. If so, which amp is superior?
Preamp - Anthem 2lse tube
Speakers - JBL 150a (8ohm, dip to 5 ohm)
Cable - Kimber
