Looking for right Mark Levinson Preamp to pair with No 532 Amp

Defintely the ML 32* if you can find one but I think a SPL, LTA, or Coda preamp would be a good match. I think the 3 would provide a litle more micro-detail.  The LTA Velo is suppose to be a great bargain for the price if you are looking for a tube pre.

lThank you, I just read up on the #32 Ref and it sounds ideal but a bit of a unicorn.  What model would you most closely associated with that are more available today.

Hello,

Look for a Mark levinson no.32 Reference Preamp and call it a Lifetime ..  :) :)

Thanks

It’s always been a great combo a good SS amp and vacuum tube preamp 

and Linear Tube  Audio make a exceptional one .

I know build quality better then most having 4 decades in Audio 

originally designed by The well known David Berning ,then upgraded 

better still,   very well reviewed and the Vacuum  tube preamp uses at least 2 different types of tubes , and inside no cheap alps volume pot 

but very high quality resistive ladder ,to relays , check them out and video on build.

Just sold my 326s, it is a really nice preamp.

Why not get the companion ML No526 pre? There is a nib one on us audio mart right now for $13.5k. (And no, I’m not affiliated with the seller, just looks like a great deal).

Get an ML1 preamp. This was actually the second preamp from Mark Levinson.The first was the JC2, designed by John Curl. The preamps after the ML1 are just to sell the Levinson marketing hype and garner more profit.
