Help and opinions needed on pre-amp situation The only constructive suggestion I can offer, is Yes to a pre-amp. I like the versatility of having a pre in the system. I listen to mostly vinyl and CD: jazz, classical, avant-garde, experimental, and 70's "hippie" country rock, along with swing... | |
