SS quality pre-amp with HT bypass-suggestions?


I have a pair of Gallo Ref. 3.1 in a second system with a Denon receiver. I would like to add a solid state used pre-amp, under $2,000, for 2 channel enjoyment to mate with an Aragon 8008BB. I've seen a lot of tube recommendations for pre-amps but I want solid state for a number of practicality reasons. Who makes one with HT bypass that truly sings?

Dave, have a look at the Rowland Capri. . . SS, fully differentially balanced, HT bypass, remote. A sound to die for IMO. . . I prefer it to my own ARC Ref 3. I have ranted abundantly about it during the last several months in several threads. G.
Hi Ckoffend, could you describe in some detail the salient sonic differences you perceived between the Calypso and the Capri? Thanks, G.
