Rogue RP-1 over on USAudiomart now for $1.1K. Highly regarded phono stage in there for entry level tube pre. Then save your coin and put a couple NOS tubes in and you have a huge bang for buck preamp.
Rogue support is also highly regarded.
Upgrading preamp. Best for under $1K
I am planning on upgrading my preamp and was wondering what would be the best preamp for under $1K. Currently have the Rotel RC-995 with a B&K ST2140 amp and Vandersteen 2ci speakers. I like to stay with SS unless their is tube pre in that price range.
