Which used preamp for Halo A21, under $1,000?


Right now, I have an Anthem TLP-1 pre mated to a new Parasound A21. The combo sounds good, but I suspect that the Anthem may be the limiting factor to achieving "great." Suggestions?

Preamp: Anthem TLP-1
Amp: Parasound Halo A21
Disc player: Oppo BDP-105
Turntable: Beogram 8002
Speakers: Alon II

Thanks Lak. The Dodd looks interesting. I'm guessing it doesn't have a remote, which is something I definitely want.

Hey Dweller. Yep, I know about driving the A21 with the Oppo, however, I listen to enough vinyl to make switching cables to the amp inputs a PITA.

Try it anyway just to see what the differences are. The results may help you pick the right preamp.
