Your Red Dragon S500 will love a tube preamp in front of it!
Best preamp (used or new) under $350???
I'm thinking of upgrading my preamp but have a budget of about $350. I currently am running a Schiit SYS. I'm happy with it but it only has 2 inputs and I would also like a remote for volume. I'm considering the Schiit Saga but would like to inquire with the forum if there are others that I should consider? I could buy new or used so please let me know your thoughts.
The other pieces in my system are a Red Dragon S500 power amp, Sonos Connect, Onix XCD88 CD player. I'll also be connecting my tv via a SMSL Sanskrit DAC. Speakers are Kef ls50.

Hi, I retired a B and K reference 50 HT processor, all analog, about a year ago. I Have it going on 12 years or so.Great as a pre amp. Going to set it up in a spare room. They are well made and received great reviews. I've seen them on Ebay/ Audiogon for as low as $250. just thought I'd mention it. Enjoy your music! |
Excellent passive pre from Tisbury Audio...I use one in my second system & it's superb. http://www.tisburyaudio.co.uk/mini-passive-preamplifier |
