Thanks for your suggestions. When looking around my area (Minneapolis) I came across someone selling a VTL 2.5 preamp. I'm really thinking a tubed pre, to tame the brightness of the Nuforces. Any opinions on the VTL...or other tubed preamps w/ a built in phono I should entertain?
Pre with phono to mate with Nuforce?
I'm helping my son set up a system that has a pair of NuForce 9SEs for amps...Paradigm Studio 100V3 speakers. Can you suggest a pre with a phono section? This is a starting system so we are not expecting the moon. Thanks in advance for your advice!
