Preamp for rogue 88

A Rogue 66 or 99 would be a great match! Stick with the giant killers!

Stick with the Rogue or possibly a used Counterpoint, very similar sound.

I second the votes for Rogue. I would also like to add that a passive preamp can be wonderful with this amp. Makes an incredible combination that people are often stunned by.

i replaced a hot-rodded rogue 99 w/a cary slp98, which was marginally better than the rogue in *all* areas, except for the bass response - where it was *way* better! i think the rogues' poor bass response in my system was due to an impedence mismatch, but i'm not so sure about the rest of its attributes. i also liked the fact that the cary had a real tape-loop & a balance control. all that said, i recently replaced the cary w/a melos music-director, which i feel is in another league altogether. my set-up has never sounded better!
