If the preamp needs that much work done to it to sound good,why not just buy a different one?I guess it's just me but I think that a piece of equipment that needs something added to it,probably isn't very good to begin with.Just a thought.
Why not just run a pig tale rather than rewiring
So I've got this stock AGI 511 preamp. Although claimed to be great, advice is to remove the original ribbon cable from the circuit board that runs to a separate board with all of the RCA input/output connectors. Replace with new female RCA connectors and run teflon coated wire and connect directly to the circuit board. Smoother sound - so claimed.
Why not just select a quality teflon jumper wires to say 4 ft in length, twist them, and install male RCA connectors on them so as to act as interconnects. Wont cost much more, and I eliminate the need for the Interconnects with their associated cost and the junction between the Preamp RCA's and Interconnects. Cleaner, simpler, so why not???
I want the speed and transparency in the preamp and associated cables - not sound coloring - that's why I have a HK Citation II tube amp. if this makes sense, what do you recommend in a reasonably price jumper/interconnect wire.
