I was looking at McIntosh C8, new retro look with remote, tubes: comes with 1 phono (switch in rear: either mc or mm)
can add their DAC card DA2 in the back which can be upgraded later
C8 for sale $3,125.
DA2 card $_____?
All In One Tube Preamp____? Remote; Line(s); Phono; DAC (used or new: $3,500 budget)
All In One Tube Preamp____? Remote Control; Line(s); Phono; DAC.
Used, New, budget $3,500.
Note: doesn’t matter whether I or you know/think separates are better, a friend has limited space and wants it all together. Standard provided features or ADD-In options work.
What’s out there ______? Tubes, not a hybrid.
as always, thanks for the help
