Berning ZH-270

I use a Supratek Cortese tube preamp with my ZH270. They compliment each other very well as they are both lightning fast and they let the music shine through. You will love the Berning. I believe it is one of the best amps in the world.

Tron Comet. No longer manufactured, but Tron is still in business and makes the (much more expensive) Syren, and in phono stage (and maybe line stage?) the Seven, which is around 4K? Not sure. BTW, I also had a Cortese, although it was an older model, the Tron beat it handily. Again, it was an older model, so can't speak for current models. You could wait for the new Berning preamp :)

When I owned the ZH-270, I used Joule Electra LA100 III, LA150 , Joule OPS1 phono stage and also the CAT SL1-MkIII. All are good combinations, with the Joule a little better than the CAT on phono side. The CAT is very strong in dynamics, but a bit less fleshed out in its portrayal of spacial information and depth of images in particular. Cheers,

Hello Oneprof,

I did not see anything on Berning's website about a new preamp. Any idea where I can get some info on it?
