My last pre-amp, Rowland Capri or Ayre K5xe ?

Cirrus,
If you would like to discuss the Capri in detail, give me an email outside the thread, I own one.

I have a Pass X2.5 and what I don't like is the silly hierarchical menu structure, which shows no evidence of the designer having even a rudimentary understanding of how people use preamps. Also, the display is too small. I also have the Ayre and I hate those silly icons. I used to have a Rowland Consonance, which I did not like for all sorts of reasons. They say the Capri is better, though.

i'll second the ayre. own a k5xemp with matching amp.happy as can be. good luck

I wonder why the Mac C500T doesn't often get mentioned as being a world class pre? Fantastic unit.

Cirrus, did you get to a conclusion between the Capri and the Ayre K-5xeMP? I`m with the same doubt right now and your help would be very important for me. Thank you in advance. Antonio
