Quicksilver Remote Pre (6DJ8) & Cary SLP-88 ... Need Opinions


I'm debating between these two preamps. What are your experiences and thoughts (sound quality, build quality, etc.). The Quickie is much newer but the Cary is a 6SN7 (for better or worse considering prices of NOS tubes, not that 6DJ8 are any cheaper)...

haven't heard the qs

the cary is a very classically tubey sounding unit... honey/rose colored, somewhat rolled off up top and down low, midbass is slow but full - lacks transparency imo
