What preamp would you mate to your Rogue M180's?

I have a Rogue 99Magnum preamp driving M180s and sounds fine. I like the variable gain feature on the preamp too.

My response is a little late. I have used the Aesthetix Calypso with nos tubes with the M180 for two years and have really enjoyed them. No desire to change.

I'm intending to use the Bryston BP26 Preamp.
What do you think of this solid state / valve combination? Joseph

All the Rogue monoblocks's 120's 150s' and 180's have a very high input impedance and very high gain, they are a great match for a passive preamps and do not need any active preamplification at all.

You may even have the problem of them being already too loud at 9 o'clock volume with an active preamp, because of the amount of gain the 180's have.

Try this first for just $49 and save a stack of money and potentially have a more transparent sound than any active preamp can give.

Well my Audible Illusions m3a sounds great with my 120's.
