Solid state preamp for 1500 used


Ok, guys , best SS pre for $1500 used, lets assume $3000 new. I will be running it with a BAT VK200 solid state amp, MIT 330 shotgun prolines interconnects, and Audio Physic Virgos, Tempos or sparks. Lets get some recommendations....Mark

I agree with BAT, but if for some reason you have to be different, try an Ayre K-3 or ARC LS-12, also excellent and in your price range.
It's an older model, but still highly musical. I sold
mine for $1050 about 6 months ago, and the price is
increasing. They're commanding $1300-1500 on eBay.
I second sugarbrie's suggestion. The Conrad Johnson PFR preamps are very musical and tube like in their aound quality.

Good luck finding an Ayrte K-3 for $1500.
If you ever do find one for that price, BUY IT!

The K-3x is an amazing preamp.
