any thing new, any bodies updated experience with some of the newer tube preamp.  i know the article at the time said the vtl 5.5 sounded great with it.  but that was almost 20 years ago.  what about now. just curious thanks........

soix,  what i have is

 

speaker alon IV'S (was also thinking of a more efficient model) 

preamp herron v1

cd nad 565cee

acoustic zen, wow II's

and signal cable everywhere else

more clarity, some info is being sacrificed for others, better sound stage, again i listen to everything, just want to know what is better.     

 

 

blackbag 20   i cant afford that stuff

jafant thanks, knew you would chime in, i have a conrad johnson.....et3se

jwpstayman,  i was considering the xlr type amp

soix   thinking about selling off some of my stuff to get me one good preamp

audphile1  i had a oppo on it at first, switched to the nad, gave it a more mature sound.  i love the sound of the wow's.  not a fan of arc. sounded to mechanical for my taste.  

jafant,  tried to move my dna 500, had to pay some one to do it for me.  between my age and issues was thinking of getting out of the audiophile thing all together.  i know if anything was to happen to me my wife would be lost.  thinking of selling it all and getting a more manageable system.....
