Climbing the Preamp ladder

Bat vk-3, Manley Shrimp, and am currently using a Bat vk3-ix. you see I like tubes. what is a good step up? not just different. I use a Rogue stereo 90 tube amp with Aerial 8 speakers. I have a musical fidelity m1 transport and a wadia 121 DAC. I would like to stay under $2500.

thanks for everything in advance.

There’s a full review on Stereofile talking about this unit. Sounds like a great source component.

If you get in touch with Wadia, they could have a s/h unit they may sell you if not a new one.
Or if you ask them they may give you the codes so you can program a universal remote to do the job, it’s all doable.
Your Rogue Stereo 90 is 1v in for full output, so you would set the Wadia’s "reference voltage setting" for 1V or 2v if you can't reach the desired volume on quite cd's/albums.

BTW: what happened to your remote??

Make sure no moisture gets in, and on a dry day seal them up with a thin wiped layer of some clear silicon sealant.

Cheers George
