| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? @armstrod how much did it cost you to get the remote mod? | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? @mbmi hI, thanks for the info. Could you elaborate on your thoughts on the unit? What other pres have you had before to compare it to? | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? @atmasphere well it seems you've put a lot of thought into it, so I trust the conclusion you've come to. Someday, if I can afford it, Atma-Sphere will be at the top of my list for a balanced tube preamp. | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? @atmasphere no offense meant by the way. I just mean to convey that today, remote controls are very important to most audiophiles, especially at the level that your firm operates | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? @atmasphere mostly eliminated. in that case why not make the full switch? Your popularity seems to be shunted majorly by the lack of a remote control being standard in your offerings | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? bushing in the design. @atmasphere ok, I understand. In the units with a motorized attenuator, do you just use a regular potentiometer? | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? @atmasphere alright, that makes sense. Why can't the existing attenuator be motorized? It is a resistor ladder? I know of plenty of preamps that can be controlled with a remote that use resistor ladders | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? atmasphere really now? Is the IR sensor built into the preamp, and all that needs to be done is for a remote to be bought separately? Or do I need to buy a unit that is custom ordered with a remote receiver? | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? Yes it does help. It's unfortunate that the audio GD has so few reviews. It's at the top of my list right now though. My source is the Gustard R26. I am honestly not sold on the benefits of balanced, but as the rest of my system is balanced it wou... | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? Thanks soix. That's good info. You say VAC, ARC, Atma-Sphere etc. Would you mind elaborating on the etc.? I am new to the world of high end modern equipment. As for the Audio GD, I am very interested in that. I appreciate the tip. I used to o... | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? steakster I've looked at that one. Would be perfect if it had a remote | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? ghdprentice, I do appreciate all of these things, and I would like to get a preamp that falls under that category, but for it to integrate with the rest of my system I do need a true balanced piece. Upping the budget to $3,000 is probably doable, ... | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? mc1969, holy crap that's a heck of a amp. Someday I'd also like a GaN amp. I have heard the Freya+. It is a fine unit. It just seemed a bit lacking to me, all around, especially in the department of dynamics and tonal character ghdprentice, t... | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? I am looking for something a bit better than the Freya +. Thank you for your suggestion though | |
| Balanced/Differential tube preamplifier recommendation? I should mention, my $2000 price is for new or used. Thanks |
