Upgrade q. Preamp, Schiit Freya +
I love my Freya+. The only thing I would upgrade to would be a SupraTek but every time I listen to my Freya I say no need to upgrade.  
Best preamp under 1500$ freya+ , cary slp03 ?
I too think the Freya+ is hard to beat for the money. I keep thinking about upgrading and then I listen to my system and say what for.

I own the R8 as well as the Bro 3's. Works great and they are not harsh sounding. No need for a sub in my 15x15 room
