I'm going along with Bob reynolds, You may not call it synergy, but when a designer designs both an amp and preamp, he matches them exactly as he see's they should be, no voltage or impedance mis matches, similar idea's and normally the same brand of gear does quite well together. I can't say if it is synergy or not, but it works. Of course that doesn't mean other things won't work together, i'm just putting in a reason why Bryston just might work well with another Bryston. I haven't listened to them, but I'm told Brystons latest generation pre's are quite good.
As far as another pre that won't cost a mortgage??? In july I picked up a New Coda, bought directly from Coda, they discounted it nicely and it is a very nice piece of equipment, worth looking into. Good Listening, Tim
