Suggest a preamp please


Current preamp Adcom older unit need preplaced. Must say I use a Numark equalizer to fine tune my sound as much as audiofiles hate them and needs to be replaced as well. Might consider no eq if the preamp works well enough I am a hard sell to remove the eq.

Budget: Under $1200
Current Speakers: Magnepan 3.5s
Amp: Innersound E300 ESL
DVD/CD player: Phillips 963SA

Listen to mostly rock, jazz and blues

Often DVD rock concerts.

Need a full function remote so I can be lazy.
Tube Preamp might be the ticket?

Thanks!

Quicksilver Remote Linestage. 2 6922 tubes, and sounds GREAT. Should be in your price range. You'll forget the Adcom real quick.

Best,

I went from an Adcom 565 to a VTL tubed preamp and it was one of the best changes I've made. There are plenty of good tubed preamp brands. Try and get some you can try at home.
Unsound: I'll second the recommendation (Tact 2.0s or Tact 2.2x) just get a powersupply upgrade.
