McIntosh C47 or Rotel 1590 pre amp ( I know theres a big of a price difference but which would be better overall dollar for dollar) thanks; I pick C47 in terms of sound but I’m not sure which would be a better buy overall
agreed....I went from a Rotel RB01092 to a MC252 and am not looking back. Although, the RB1590 has been getting rave reviews but at $4K retail I would be looking a bit closer at McIntosh. But, I see you are asking about preamps. I had upgraded my RC1550 to an RC1590 ($1700 retail) and when I got home my wife asked were the McIntosh was, so I returned the preamp, took my RB1582 amp as trade and came home with a MAC6700 - no regrets. The RC1590 has also been getting good reviews.
