Take a look at your Syrah, then look at a picture of a Thor. I'd never trade my Syrah for a plain-jane looking preamp that may/may not sound better - certainly not a huge dif. in fidelity
Supratek vs. Thor?
Hi guys,
I own and love a Supratek Syrah. Howver I've notice quite a few Thor TA100 preamps on here lately at astonishing prices for an $8K preamp. So just wondering has anyone compared the two? I know the Thor has gotten some raves in the press and the Supratek has gotten some raves here, and rightly so. Is the Thor legit, or is it another case of press hype. And would it be a step down or sideways versus up to go from a Syrah to a Thor? The rest of the system, Tube Tech CD64 player, Cary 300B monos, Alon Lotus speakers. Thanks in advance.And have a happy Thanksgiving!
