Preamp upgrade opinion...


thinking of upgrading from a Levinson No. 28 preamp w/phono to something else. I currently own a Pass Labs x250 amp and my musical tastes range from rock to reggae with an occasional jazz piece. I'm not certain a tube preamp would fit the bill (please correct me if I am wrong!!!). Currently use XLR inputs and outputs in my current setup and could probably go with RCA's if need be with a future preamp. What could I possibly purchase in the <3k market with something a little newer. The phono option would be nice but not mandatory. Let's discus. Regards. J~

I would look at upcoming Modwright SWL 9.0 Anniversary Edition preamp. It is targeted to sell below $3K and will be a 5687 based single-ended line stage of all-tube design, with choke-regulated supply, Home Theater Bypass and integral headphone amp.

You can also add phono option for $350.00. 

Speak to Dan at Modwright and he will happy to answer any question or concerns.
