| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp @audiotroy yes the NuPrime looks solid! | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp @stuartk I understand. Given how "budget" my current amp is, it could be an improvement though - or so I thought. I already have had a lot of help here and I think I will be on the right track. | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp @curiousjim Wow. Exactly, Thank you! I have been looking at the different combinations and wondered why some integrateds have the main input and the preamp our and then connected with a dongle vs. just the preamp. That's how ignorant I am. I do... | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp I go to Stereo Unlimited once a month or so to clean records. And they do have a lot of nice used gear. I haven't approached them with an offer lower than the posted price, but good idea! | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp @tomic601 you are Santa :) I will follow up, thank you | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp @immatthewj I did think about buying a preamp from the big retailers for around a $1500 on a credit card. I think it's a good idea actually because it would show me if there is a difference. The downside is that once I return it, I would have to g... | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp thanks @ellajeanelle I was hoping to get one component for about $400, to upgrade and then later on upgrade the other component | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp @mahgister the Sansui looks awesome! | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp @audphile1 as I wrote above it’s a 2 channel denon receiver, from the 90s, with a preamp out. 50Watts into 8Ohm @knotscott I am trying trying trying the separates route but everyone pushes back :) @dekay thanks! | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp @mahgister Merry Christmas to you too! @ozzy62 right. I know it won't buy much. I thought a Parasound 2125 power amp, the Parasound P3 would be an upgrade. @mesch it's a Denon receiver. It has what I prefer, it's 2 channel, no phono, with preamp... | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp @audphile1 @stuartk I thought separates were the better direction. But I understand the rationale. My logic is, I am trying to upgrade one tiny step at a time. First I would get a better power amp or better preamp than what’s inside my current ... | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp @mahgister Dynadio evokes | |
| another rookie question - preamp or or power amp thanks @noromance @stringreen yes, I am trying to go for Parasound. But I shall look at cheaper options too | |
| I’m looking for an sleek integrated amp under $15k I have never heard an integrated amp over 5K and probably never will. Based on reviews, I'd want to hear a Simaudio model for sure. I would never look for one with a phono input but a separate phono preamp. | |
| phono preamp to power amp thank you @tomic601 you too! |
