| Review on AricAudio Motherlode MKII preamplifier @teajay Good job. In the future I would have liked for some comparisons to other linestages to put things into perspective... for example your Coda 07x which I believe you also really loved. | |
| Mark Levinson 523 preamp with McIntosh power amp? @nibongese How do you like the 523? Hows the combination with Mc452? | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) @noble100 Awesome, will look into ML more@teo_audio Interesting so is your thought that nothing can truly replace tubes to get a 'tube type sound' ? | |
| Truly Balanced Cheaper Preamplifiers? @mcondon There is a calypso for sale in Canada. I considered it but was worried that if I didn't like it, it would be very hard to sell as its not a super popular brand. Gonna take another look. | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) @arcticdeth nice! | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) Well said Goef3! | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) @gestalt I'll take a look, thanks!@dodgealum Im not totally ruling them out but I love the reliability of SS and not having to fiddle with tubes or worried about it blowing up for some reason. | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) I heard from others something that also might fit is Robert Koda K10. | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) @dweller thats a stereo amp. Looking for preamp.@skypunk: Will consider moon. | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) Hybrid is interesting but Im wonder if there is a pure SS pre that brings that tube magic. | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) ARC and VAC are out for me because of issues with local dealers.Pass is definitely high on my list but from what I've heard they are pretty neutral and not warm or tubey. I think I would like some richness and warmth without it sounding boring. | |
| Does it annoy you when companies don't show the internals of electronics ? Just to be clear I am not saying the dealer has to open it up in front of me...but I'd at least like a picture of the internals (on the website is fine).Just spoke with space tech labs and asked to see pictures of their internals of their tube lin... | |
| Any experience with Min at Tube audio lab? Solid state vs Tube pre in general Thoughts on my last question ? | |
| New tube preamp One prior owner of 07x told me to ls27 arc was much better. Another told me a mid tier mcintosh integrated preamp section was better. Just fyi. | |
| Does it annoy you when companies don't show the internals of electronics ? Accuphase and luxman internals are incredible. |
