Pre-Amp Recommendation


Thinking its time to update/upgrade. Have a 10-year-old Audio Illusions Mod 3 (with phono card). Rest of system is Audio Research VT 130, Wilson Witts, Audio Research CD 2, TNT 3.5 turntable, Audio Research PH 3, and Magnum Dynalab FT 101A tuner. The only balanced front end equipment is the CD 2. Pre amp needs to have balanced out. Budget of around $2000 used. Got any recommendations?

Fiddler,

Your tubes cost almost as much as the preamp. It oughta sound good. I've invested heavily in tubes for my SupraTek also. I can afford to because I didn't have to spend $10K to get the sound I was looking for.

If you have to have a balanced output, then you don't have many options. BAT or SupraTek. SupraTek's phonostage recieves a lot of rants.
