So we know the higher end preamps don’t include dacs and phono stages. Highly desirable noise free devices. I hear wonderful things about these preamps, Luxman, Accuphase, Audio Research, etc.
Give Prima Luna a look. It was a noticeable immediately. So much so, I thought there may have been something wrong in the preamp it was replacing...Wasn’t the case, It just sounded wonderful...
I noticed a difference going from a NAD preamp to a Don Sachs. A little in the dynamics and a little in the delicacy. Put it together and tou get a little better sound.
And I can vouch for Primaluna. Running the Don Sachs into a Primaluna Evo400 power amp is a great combo.
Totally worth it if you have other good things in the chain.
