Im with most of the others here. Go for a tube preamp in that price range. Jolida Fusion preamp is very musical and juicy sounding. Lots of gain.
Need under $1500 preamp for my system
Hi,
I listen to classical and jazz. I like nuance and warmth. I have...
Aerial 10T’s - Speakers
Parasound Zone Master 2350 - Power Amp
Music Fidelity X-ray (has coax digital out) - CD player
...and I need a preamp under $1500. I am considering streaming, but also have plenty of vinyl, (and an inexpensive turntable, which I also might upgrade.) I am considering the Parasound NewClassic 200 Pre, but would love other recommendations as well. Also having a built in tuner might be nice.
Thanks

If you want perfect Preamp, check this one Gustard P26 https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/measurements-of-gustard-p26-preamplifier.... Or latest schitt Freya s https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/schiit-freya-s-preamplifier-review.10960/ |
Wolf, good to know on the tube removal procedure! On my previous pre, the Saga, I once misaligned the tube when inserting, a rookie mistake. That's also something that those new to tubes need to be aware of. BTW, you're the guy that made me curious about the Freya, and it's the best preamp I've had by far. It's an end game piece. |
