What was your first record?
Probably RUSH 2112... but it was sooooo long ago and sooooo many albums now I truly can`t remember.  
Budget preamp recommendation...besides Schiit.
Parasound New Clasic 200 Pre (the NC 200 Intergrated same but with power). Lots of input/output options, built in DAC, MM/MC phono, Sub out, Hi-pass / low pass, HT by-pass, and tone controll all fully operational by one of the best remotes anywhe... 
Why is solid state more popular when tubes are better?

Rolling stones "Fingerprint File" from the album " It's only Rock'n Roll" Not a huge Stones fan, but WOW. This song knocked my socks off.  
Parasound ZM-2350 - anybody tried this in their two channel system?
What could go wrong? Nothing. I purchased one and paired with the Parasound New Classic 200 pre-amp and couldn't be happier for the past two years. Yes, features for pretty much any situation. A low(ish) cost audiophile solution to get you 90% the...
