I have an AI Modulus 3A combined with a Belles SA-100. Great combination, but i don't like the stepwise volume control in the AI, especially when streaming music. Was wondering if the Belles Aria would be a good substitute. Any thoughts about that?
which should I get Rogue RP5, Hegel P20, Belles Aria Preamp, Audible Illusion Modulus 3B
First of all, I will be auditioning and comparing all of the above next week, and although ears are the best judge, I would like readers to comment on their experience with any of these units. SQ, service, tube quality and life, and other pro and cons. I believe that the new Belles Signature (or virtuoso) preamp will be included to the audition. Thanks for your comments...
My system consist of
- Belles virtuoso 200wpc dual amp
- Vandersteen 2ce sig
- Linn LP12 , Lingo 3, Itok LVII, Ortofon 2M Black
- Auralic 1C streamer
- Kimber 8tc bi wire speaker cables
- Audioquest Red River audio connects
