Opinions please on older Sony ES Pre-amps


I currently have an old Adcom (565) pre-amp along with an Adcom 545II Amp and a fairly new set of B&W CDNT 9 speakers. I am replacing the pre-amp with a Sony TA-DM1000ES because I really want a remote for controlling volume. Any opinions on if the Sony will sound better or worse?

Thanks,
Jon

I use to run a TAE9000es into a five channel adcom amp. The sound wasn't to bad maybe a little colored, unfortunatly I don't think it will sound better than your adcom piece.

Why don't you try an Audio Research LS-15? This piece has a remote and I bet it would light those B&W's up. In it's day it was very highly rated.
