Ps Audio BHK preamp Vs ARC best preamps

Hello to everyone in this forum, I'm Mario from Venice, Italy and I'm a new member even if I read your posts since a lot of time.

First of all sorry for my written english, I will try to do my best.

I would like to know if anyone has been able to compare the BHK preamp with the best of ARC production and in my opinion this means with LS 22, LS 25 (both the versions...), Ref 3, Ref 5SE and so on.

Thank you for sharing  your impressions.

I'll add my vote to at least trying the DSD direct into your power amps regardless of your amp choices.  I'm still getting over the fact that for me, the DSD sounds better run directly into my Pass amps rather than through my existing preamp (which is an Aesthetix Janus).

Mario, what happened when you compared without preamp to with preamp?

What happened with the OP here? It seems like @mariovidal65 ordered the BHK Preamp then disappeared

 Running a tube preamp into a low impedance load and this is what happens.
 Try an Aesthetix Atlas power amp or Atlas monoblocks with your Janus
 Pre amp and you will be scratching your head in the other direction.

Here I am...

And I ordered the BK 250, not the preamp...
