The Sim Audio I-5 is supposed to sound excellent with Dynaudios. But if you want separates, what about a Cary SLP-98 preamp?
Tube pre to mate with a Simaudio amp and Dynaudio
I've just recently taken delivery of Dynaudio Contour 1.3se monitors and am looking for amplification.
I've heard these speakers with a Sim Audio I-5 and enjoyed the sound immensely, but would like to move to a W-3 and a tubed pre-amp.
I'm looking for a slightly richer sound, but one that is still relatively transparent, fast, and open. Are there any tubed preamplifiers that meet these requirements?
Under consideration:
Audio Research LS-15
deHavilland UltraVerve
Manley Shrimp
any other thoughts would be apprciated.
