Review: Concert Fidelity CF-080 Preamplifier
Bump 
Thoughts on new Bryston Cubed amps? Specifically the 4B3 and 28B3 amps.
I appreciate your responses so far. My 4B3 sounds great, so I'd like to eventually move up to the 28 Cubed.

Re: Herron Audio, resale may not be the best but according to a friend of mine, absolutely wonderful gear and a true gentleman to deal with. Supremely musical, reasonably priced, manufactured by a true believer.Seek out reviews on the web. Everyon...

CJ’s solid state products are very underrated. I would get the 350. I have the matching preamp (Premiere 18). It still sounds great. The Premier 350 is a little old at this point. If you want something more modern, that sounds better and has simil... 
D'Agastino Momentum vs Dartzeel NHB108
I've had two Dartzeel 108 amps (at slightly different times), the first a little older but current and the second brand new (used with several preamps including the Dartzeel preamp). I would opt for the new D'Agostino S250 (or M400 monos) over the... 
Burmester or Pass?
+1 for the Bryston 28B3. I had the 28BSST2’s and they were great, the new Cubed amps are spectacular. Having a 20 year warranty is a huge bonus. 
Burmester or Pass?
The Burmester may eventually have to be biased. It tends to drift over time and there is a specific procedure to do so. Getting service for a used Burmester amp might prove to be difficult. Pick the Pass or Bryston. 
I need a good Preamp
Check out the PS Audio BHK preamp. It's well under your budget, sounds great, tube rollers delight and will mate with any amp.

Congratulations Don. I still absolutely love my Job INTegrated. I am glad you do too. Give it some time and it will only get better. 
McIntosh Mc2KW amp - anyone heard them?
I think current retail is close to $80K for a stereo pair. They are glorious amps. A true destination if I could afford them. Huge, 3D sound. Biggest sound stage that I ever heard. Dead quiet and tremendous control. http://www.audioshark.org/mcint...
