Hello All,
So I have been googling and reading until my head hurts, I want to purchase a new preamp; and don't have the budget to make the wrong choice. (hence I seek your help).
OK, So about me, my current system is, from source to sound: a Rega P5 (modded - groovetracer subplatter, TTPSU, feet, weight, achromat..) Also, a Marantz SA8004 SACD player (so both digital and analog sources), into a Hafler DH110 Preamp, to a Hafler DH500 power amp. audioquest interconnects and speaker wire to B&W Nautilus 804 speakers.
My Hafler DH500 is working great, but the DH110 is dying. So I am looking for an UNBALANCED preamp, with remote to replace it.
I have read about NAD C 165BEE, Vincent Audio SA-31MK, Parasound 2100, C.I. Audio PLC-1, Emotiva PT-100, Schitt Saga, and Audio by Van Alstine, and Rogue.
So I am for some real world advice on the best long term match for my hafler (etc).
And Please, any other options or recommendations are welcome.
