Jeff Rowland Capri vs Bel Canto Pre3

Guido--

I haven't had the Pre3 in my system so I can't answer. The pre/pro has both digital and analog circuitry and is the older generation of BC products. As you may recall, your (and others') glowing reviews of the Capri helped me decide to buy one. So thank you! It's simply a lovely piece. While I have not owned the ARC Ref 3, I have heard it, and I agree with your assessment.

Thank you Dgaylin, it seems that more and more audiophiles are taking Capri seriously and are unwilling to part with it. . . Lately, it has become quite a scarce commodity on Audiogon for sale listings

Yes, I got one that Ben2300 was selling and I think I got lucky. It's one of those items that just makes you happy.

cheers,

Thanks for all your comments

Guidocorona, I just want to know your opinion about one parameter that tube preamplifiers (including Ref3)have wet sound and SS preamplifiers have dry or opac sound in general, how Capri stands in this parameter?
Thanks in advance
