Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier

How many of you have the remote version of the AH 2.0 preamp? I am just curious as this option is brand new.

I am just loving it to death and can't wait to listen to more of my CD's.

I wish Mr. Chow would make a nice SS or tube amp to mate with this preamp. Based on his pre and dac , I'm sure it would be fantastic.

I would also like to know if any of you use tube dampers on this preamp.

Thanks,

Bill

No dampers yet, no remote. Ambivilent with mostly near field listening. Always had preamp remotes and almost never use them. I tend to use the pause of my CD Transport if the phone rings.

Grannyring,

From what I recall in an e-mail with Victor, I believe Joseph might be working on a tube amp. I also don't have the remote and don't have any desire to add one in the near future. I don't mind getting up to adjust the volume.

Why would you need a remote, you have to rise to refill your wineglass from time to time,right.

For me, a remote is a requirement since moving to a computer-driven delivery setup. The ability to pick and choose tracks, which almost always vary in recording level justify the remote. Much different than popping in one CD and listening end-to-end, in which the levels mostly remain constant. Just my take...
