Pre-amp for McIntosh MC-352

THANKS FOR ALL THE RESPONSES. I NEVER THOUGHT OF TUBE PRE-AMP WITH SS AMP. WILL DEFINATELY AUDITION THE 352/C2200 COMBO WHEN I HAVE A CHANCE.

If you are into resolution, Mac, and depth of soundstage, try the later production C100 or C200 preamps. I use a C100 with a KSA300s and 801 IIs with all Golden Reference or Golden Cross cabling and the detail is astounding. Grain in the 300s ? only when you run out of house power !

Agree with Stereosteve-I have C-100 latest version pre and it works extremely great with my MC-352 and Legacy Sig-III speakers;resolution plus depth of soundstage amasing;before had C-42-it's good preamp too,but no compare with C-100...

My friend is using the Krell KBL preamp on his Mcintosh MC 500 amp. The Krell is from the early 90s. Its really well built and has a natural sound to it. It has a separate power supply. Other good preamps I'v heard that I liked,
Pass P preamp, Adcom 750 modified by Stan Warren, Threshold T2, T3, and YBA 2 preamplifier which has 2 volume controls.
