preamp to go with Plinius 250mk4 and SF Extremas The First Sound Presence Deluxe Mk II.It details effortlessly and throws a large soundstage.It has very little character of its' own and won't break the bank. Will you need a phono section? | |
First Sound Presence Deluxe Mk. II with Cary V-12i Sounds like a good combo.I am fond of the First Sound.Beware of tube failure/cap overload with the Carys.They are known for running high capacitance on their tubes,which are designed to have about 4Mf.You might talk with Lloyd Walker about cabling... | |
