VAC is king forget ARC not as good.
VAC preamps - too expensive?
VAC makes great products so i hear. The Linestage Master lists for $28k and next one down is Signature, for $22k. Add $12k for a phonostage.
anybody have experience with these units?
its a marketing strategy. Yeah the $22k Signature is very nice but for just $6k more u get a much better unit. Might as well get the Master. Pretty clever. Oh and they offer a line stage called the Statement for $80k and it comes with chrome and a skylight so u can view whats inside. The Master has most of what the $80k Statement has (no skylight) so i guess the $28k Master seems a great deal. Pretty clever.
