Looking for a new (preowned OK) line stage under $5K: suggestions?
I’d get a preamp using the 6sn7 tube. Mod Wright, Cary, Supratek, Aric among others make tube pre’s using this tube. Many Pass owners like the Cary.

First Watt Sit-3 paired with Klipsch Cornwall lV?
I still have a set of the Zu resistors... thought they should be a different value
