Hey all!
I am looking for advice on a preamp. I am new to the hobby, but have been fortunate in my finds so far. I found a great stratos with the extra capacitance, i have tekton Lores, a schiit modi3 dac, a nice disc player, and a pioneer avr (vsx-52) that I use as a preamp. I am looking for my first real stereo preamp. I’d like to keep the budget around $300 or less. I am looking for suggestions. I see new products from emotiva and schiit, but also see used preamps from adcom, b&k, and parasound for good prices. What are your thoughts? Where should I start?
