| Which Preamp for Bryston 4BST. BP-25 or Rogue 66 Alan- Great choice! Get yourself some Black Diamond Racing cones #4They deepen and tighten up the bass like you won't believe!

| Which phono preamp? I had a black cube when I bought my 99 w/phono.I did A/B with a Y connector.The 99 phono (stock tubes) won by a slim margin.Slightly better inner detail.I then spent $200 on some killer NOS tubes for the 99 phono.After that the 99 CRUSHED the blac... |
