I am looking under $1000 used. My gear is Rogue Magnum M120's VPI hw19 jr TT w/ grado sonata Graham Slee era gold phono stage Vandersteen 2c's Listen to 60's and 70's rock. I have been using tubes in a pre for a while. I am considering SS. Need help. Thanks, Scott
I am leaning towards this selection ARC LS3, SP8, SP6 Some Macintosh model I have had the following. Rogue Magnum 99 Blue Circle BC3 Despina AES ae/1 Conrad Johnson Premier 2 ARC SP7 and others I can't even think of right now. Thanks, Scott
Hi Eagleman, yes we have discussed this pre before. I am reluctant if you know what I mean. I know you mean well and I believe you love this preamp. I am just having a hard time thinking this could be for me. Does he offer home trials ? Why should I believe that this preamp assembled in China for $700 can be better than a ARC LS3 or a SP8 or even a Sonic Frontier SFL2. I can't imagine that being possible without A-B comparison. I don't know about this one. Thanks, Scott
Just so you know, I ended up buying an ARC LS3. And with that decision came some spare money because they are so cheap. I went on ebay and bought some vintage Infinity speakers. Well, we will see how this time goes. You never know, there may be another LS3 on the for sale list in a few weeks.
