old high end preamps..

Proceed AVP  Cary Cinema 11   Bryston SP1.7



I have had all but the Cary. which do you think would sound best for music in 2.1 ? I have the Bryston now. cant really find any flaw in it except I cant tell where volume is with lights down and screen is hard to read from 6ft away. Bryston sounds good.
I am actually getting a Cary Cinema 11 this week. I know if a recapped AVP . I like the looks of either of these over the Bryston.

The original Halfler pre-amp.  Worth its weight in gold.

I purchased a used ARC SP-6 for my system recently and am amazed how much better it is than the fairly-well regarded Luxman CL-32 I had been using.

Also, it was CHEAP, and I am poor, so it was a great sonic addition to my system.  

I have no experience with Bryston other than the original amps, and they were pretty good.

Cheers!

I have a Mac C33 (ss) that I purchased new in 1984.  Still sounds great and offers fun and flexibility to experiment with various speakers and room configs.  Not appreciably better or worse than my 2 year old Primaluna DiaLogue (vt).
