| HELP!!! I need a “GOOD-CHEAP” preamp solution??? @schubert When I called Frank yesterday, he definitely had his stereo volume up and enjoying some type of guitar tune.

| HELP!!! I need a “GOOD-CHEAP” preamp solution??? @yogiboy I’ve talked to Klaus in the past. At times, it seems like he’s got folks waiting for his products? His stuff seems like a “good value” buy?

| HELP!!! I need a “GOOD-CHEAP” preamp solution??? Wow. Thanks for all the great input! Sounds like the Schiit Freya at 7 bills is a no-brainer. Lots of fans. I was surprised to hear about the step attenuator (relay-volume) can be heard through the speakers when raising the volume? Weird. Ive chec... | |
| HELP!!! I need a “GOOD-CHEAP” preamp solution??? Sounds like good Schiit! Off the top of my head, Schiit seems to build mostly desktop solutions. Is it fair to say, they’re branching out and into some 2 channel audio products vs the headphone amp/dac components? Also, isn’t there a new turntable... | |
