Rogue RP-1 or Schiit Freya

Hello all, I'm looking for opinions regarding my next upgrade. I will be moving from an older NAD pre-amp. Now that I have a Rogue Atlas Magnum III in power duties, I'm looking for a new pre. 

Sources MoFi Ultra deck TT with Ultra Phono Pre. NAD CD player

Amp: Rogue Atlas Magnum III

Speakers: Klipsch Heresy IV

Sub SVS PB2000 pro

Both the Rogue and Schiit are my top contenders. 

Thank you!

save your money and get a used rogue RH 5 headphone amp and line stage.  sounds much better than the rp 1 and schiit.

Get the Rogue. Every piece of Schiit that I've seen is just that 😁

Parts quality on the Rogue is superior, as is the build, the cosmetics, and the casework.

 I've also found Rogue to be easy to deal with if in need of service information.

I own a Schiit Freya plus. I do not understand those who say it is not good quality. I’m currently using 2 Sylvania 7n7’s with adaptors for the input stage, and Tung-Sol 6sn7’s for output. The sound is good. I have had no issues with this preamp. If you can try either of the 2 pieces you mentioned, try them both, then decide.
