Preamp for McCormack DNA500
Hi everyone!
I'm in the market for a new preamp for my McCormack DNA500 power amp. So far I've been using my Benchmark DAC-1 but it's time to move forward. Only thing that concerns me is the relatively low input impedance of the DNA500 which automatically excludes (at least partially) major preamps such as AR Ref3, CJ CT5, Lamm LL2 etc, all requiring input impedances over 20KOhm. I've read excellent reviews on Tom Evans's Vibe Lithos 7 but cannot find anything on synergy with low input impedance power amps.
Any suggestions or comments most welcome!
