Shindo amps vs. preamps

Hello-

I see more on the forums related to Shindo preamps than amplifiers. Are the preamps what makes Shindo systems very good, or does the Shindo amp make the magic?

Reason being, in my experience the tube amp has always made more magic than the preamp. I'm not sure if that is the case with Shindo. I can not use a Shindo preamp as I require remote, but have been looking into Shindo Montrachet and Haut Brion amps.

Thanks,

Thanks guys---my issue is that I can't have the Shindo preamp due to lack of remote for personal reasons. Therefore, I am in the situation of just looking at amps, or perhaps I might be just better off looking elsewhere.

Thanks for the Montille idea Dbarger (which was originally what I was going to try), but Matt at Pitch Perfect thinks I need a bit more wattage for my largish room (hence, Montrachet or Haut Brion)

Keith,
it is very long ago, but how did you find the Hout Brion? Do you still have it? Or how long have you kept it? What came after it?
