Thanks guys and a good listening in 2013
There's that mysterious term "laid back". What does this mean.
It's got 12db gain. The bp26 has around 23db gain. The overall system gain will be around 12db gain lower than the bp26. Low gain pre amps are typically quieter for noise especially with tubes. To each their own but If you like more casual listening volumes I find 12 db pretty close to to perfect. My passive has a 12db or6 db gain switch. In 6 db it turns my 650 watt 14b into about 100 watt little purrer equivalent.
Werd - if your preamp is passive how does it have a gain switch?james
Hi James,If the BP17 is more laid back than the BP26, how would you compare / describe the sound of the bha-1 used as a preamp?Cheers,Bob
Yesjames
Hi James,I'm leaning towards a BP-26 and understand that the Tape Loop can be used in a similar fashion to an HT Bypass. Can you confirm this and if so how that would be configured as well as what implications there may be in setting up this way?Thanks!
