Audio Research Reference 2 vs. Lamm LL

Syntax,

I respect your opinion on this.

Thanks

Another option for remote would be to add a Placette Audio remote volume control. It is one input, one output and can easily be placed between your pre and your amps. Read the reviews on Placette equipment. Anyway, these can be found on audiogon for around $600.

p.s. You will likely NEVER see a used Placette Active Linestage for sale. It may be the best piece of audio equipment ever made.

Actually, it can be found for under $500.00. Right now the entire placette passive preamp is on ebay for $600.00

Kensetsu, have you tried a well-kept vintage McIntosh C-22 preamp? I've heard they are wonderful. The re-issued C-22, Mac's 60th Anniversary edition is garnering raves from current owners.
