I bought a McIntosh C2500 preamp in almost new condition from Audio Classics for 4300.00. It is a great tube preamp and sounds wonderful with the McIntosh MC152 solid state amp. I have had many tube preamps and this reminds me most of my former Audible Illusions Modulus 3B but with tone controls and other nicety's. If you like the lush tube sound (which I do) this may float your boat.
Soooooooo many possibilities...!
Hello folks :)
Humbly request to tap into the vast experience and knowledge that is the Audiogonners history.
What preamp and/or phono stage would give a really nice soundstage, and sound, with my equipment?
Said equipment consists of a pair of McIntosh MC1000 amps, a pair of McIntosh XR200 speakers, and a Denon DP 59L turntable.
Audio Research Ref 6 has not sold me, and, wonder if something else out there may sound better... Also, is an Audio Research Ref 2 Phono a good route to go?
Thank you:)
