All i can say is the the PS Audio BHK preamp transformed my system. i had been running directly from the PS DSD DAC to the BHK amp, but the preamp really improved every aspect of the sound. very reliable and great functionality and PS has great customer service. I am not in the audio biz so this is not written with any ulterior motive.
Please help me chose a tube preamp
I have an opportunity to buy an
Aesthetix Calypso Line Stage amp, I need to know what you all think of it, please.
I do not want to buy something based on reviews of high end audio publications, for I do not want to make the same mistake when I bought Totem model one, Triangle Titus, Audio Research LS3B. All of these were a major disappointment for me.
There is a VTL TL 2.5 available as well, for less then half the price tag of Aesthetix.
I have a Levinson 431 power amp that will be paired with the selected preamp.
Anyone have any experiences with this Aesthetix and VTL?
Cheers
