Try other cables than Cardas Golden Reference ICs or Golden Cross speaker cable. I recommend you to at least try Stereovox LSP/SEI.
Add Preamp to Berning ZH270
My gear has VPI TNT6-HR table and JMW 12.5 arm, Transfiguration Temper W cartridge, Manley Steelhead phono pre, Berning ZH270 amp connected directly to the phono pre, Merlin VSM-MX with super bam, Cardas Golden Reference ICs and Golden Cross speaker cable.
My room is 500sqft*9ft(high).
Usually I turn the Berning's volume control to 10 to 10.5 o'clock and turn the Steelhead volume to the highest. When I listen, I always feel that the BASS is shy.
I want to try to add a preamp to see whether the BASS can be impoved. I can add either a passive or an active pre, i.e. Placette or Joule LA150.
Anybody have tried this and what are the results?
Any suggestions?
