I have Audible Illusions and PrimaLuna Monoblocks that cast a soundstage all the way across the front of the room.
I heard VAC casts the widest soundstage.
What preamp creates the largest soundstage?
I have had great experiences with all of these brands.

I have a Backert Labs Rhumba 1.3 mated with a Pass XA-25. The Rhumba just caused an explosion of the soundstage in all directions. The music is just so exquisite that I find it very hard to stop listening! It is so liquid and involving. It just brings me closer to a live performance than anything I have heard in over 40 years as an audiophile. Isoacoustic Orea Bronze footers have helped as well. |
