Jeff Rowlands Amp and Dac vs. VAC amp and DAC

Hello, I am new to this forum but I have a question. I am trying to pair an amp + DAC with my Wilson Sabrinas. I have listened to Jeff Rowlands integrated with the Aeris DAC. And the VAC Sigma integrated with the Aeris DAC. Price is a factor and so is space. Does the 625 need a pre-amp? Any suggestions or thoughts?

In my opinion, Sarah singing Angel with Emmylou Harris is a great track. One of my all time favourite go-to songs.

Not really the same direction, I prefer Loreena McKennitt. She is a Canadian, by the way. The concert in Alhambra, Spain is excellent.

I love Loreena too. Yes, they are both Canadian. 
As for the Continuum, I heard it and passed. I think (at least to my ears) the 625 is better. And down the road I can add a pre-amp. Thanks you for letting me know. Wilson likes JR with the Sabrinas too. Could it be I have decided?????

Hi again Rinpoche, "problem" is that by listening to M625 S2 you have set your reference point very high. I suspect that if you get any other amp, including Continuum S2, you will place yourself onto a path of regrets and second guessing yourself, followed by an unavoidable course of "upgraditis furiosa".


Rather, why not try to megotiate a price break with Angie?
