Elrod, consider Mapletree Audio. Really good sounding preamps at down to earth prices.
Tube Preamp W/Phono Stage Suggestions...
Looking for a little guidance on selecting a tube preamp. I currently
have a Decware CSP3 which is a very nice sounding preamp. The CSP3 is a
line stage/headphone preamp which is very open and articulate, fairly
neutral with great soundstage and separation, and is very quiet.
In a replacement preamp, I'm looking for the same attributes but something with a good built in MM phono stage and at least two additional inputs, balanced or unbalanced. A touch on the warm side would be okay. Doesn't have to have all (or any) bells and whistles.
Looking for new/used below the price of 3K. I've been looking at units such as the Audible Illusions M3B, Modwright LS-100 w/phono board, Atma-Sphere MP-3 Mk3.2, and the Rogue Audio RP-5.
Looking to get the best bang for my buck in sound quality, so any input/personal experience on what I've listed, or any new suggestions would be appreciated. Will be running through a Yamaha B-1 amp and NS-2000 speakers
