| Looking for phono preamp advice in the $1000 - $1600 range Old post, so I'm kinda late. I'm using a Sutherland TZ Vibe with a Hana ML moving coil cartridge and they work great together. | |
| Interconnects priority I've been swapping out cables between my dac and preamp trying to find the best fit. I've also got a couple of cables on order. I had a pure silver cable between my amp and preamp that I think is pretty good. On a whim, I replaced it tonight wit... | |
| Used tube preamp $2-3K My main preamp for years was a conrad-johnson PV-14L tube preamp. I still feel that it's a good preamp for the money. I had a conrad-johnson Premier 17LS2 for a few weeks. It had an issue that caused static in one channel, so I returned it. I t... | |
| Would like to try a tube preamp after years of solid state and hybrid @charliehorse If you are looking at the black unit, they should have a remote for it. I sent an extra remote with mine. You can buy them from c-j for $40. I bought mine new in 2001 and it was the last piece that I upgraded. I initially went t... | |

| Would like to try a tube preamp after years of solid state and hybrid I just traded a conrad-johnson PV-14L tube preamp to The Music Room. For the money, I think it's excellent. It has a remote and theatre pass through if that matters. Takes two tubes that last a long time unlike some of the newer c-j preamps. I ... | |
| dac recommendations for turntable listener? @reimarc I have a Gustard R26 dac. I've thought about upgrading, but I think it would take an upgrade like you made to make it worthwhile. | |
| Best and Worst customer service? I've gotten excellent service from Coda, Von Schweikert, and Linear Tube Audio. | |
| If A.I. took the place of musicians, would you listen to it? I wouldn't. | |
| ReL Subs: High Level or Low Level connection I have two S/510. For two channel, they are connected via high level with Analysis Plus wires. I also do home theatre via a pass through on my preamp. I'm connected to the LFE input from my surround processor. Seems to work well. I want my mai... | |
| dac recommendations for turntable listener? I recently upgraded my streamer to a Innuos Zen Mk3. I'm using it with a Gustard R26 r2r dac. I'm quite happy with it. I think the Gustard is excellent for the money. My vinyl playback is decent, but not crazy expensive. Marantz TT-15S1 turntable... |
