preamp with two adjustable outputs??
I have not come across a preamp with 2 ADJUSTABLE OUTPUTS. Cajunpepe mentions the Macs - do they really have INDEPENDENTLY ADJUSTABLE outputs? if so, then you're in luck :-)MY Sonic Frontiers SFL-2 has 4 outputs: 2xXLRs + 2xRCAs but they cannot be...

"Yet to me, it makes Music the way I like it. Guido"well said, guido. and thanks for your answer to my question.it is hard to come by used JRDGs here in Manila because owners just REFUSE to part with them (like us Krell owners refusing to let go o... 
Tradeoffs going to a hybrid from all tubes?
Hi, i'm not usre if i get it right but if by "hybrid" you mean a tube/ss pre + ss/tube amp, then i can say there seems to be no "trade-off" that i can discern with mine.I drive my Krell FPB with a Sonic Frontiers SFL-2 and i am VERY happy with the... 
Which Solid State Amplifier is Making you Happy?
i am a Musical Fidelity fan, but since the 'original' oblong NUVISTA series went out of the market, my taste went wth it.these are the SS amps that made me really happy (latest to oldest): - Krell FPB 200c - current and probably my main stay - Mus...

$1k preamp for McCormack DNA-125 recommendations?

Review: Krell FPB-700cx Amplifier
Hi, this response might come in late, but perhaps "better late than never" should count? ;-)I don't own a 700cx but an FPB-200c driving my nutty/naughty Sonus Faber Concerto Domus, a 2-way floorstander that seems power hungry it "sort of" killed m... 
Old Krell vs new Krell amps...
Hello Nico_g,in my recollection, the Tannoys and the JBLs are really easy to drive, thus, some buddies here in Manila drive them with low-powered SETs with finesse.IMHO, the Krells are the epitome of solidstate amps that are really "SOLID STATE". ... 
Wadia CD players direct to power amps opinions
Vx700: out here in the other side of the pond - i can say i was among the very few who tried the Wadia Direct Link approach BACK IN THE EARLY 90s when the very first Wadia entered the shores of the Philippines.I used the one-box Wadia 6 direct to ...
