Preamps

What do you feel strongly about the Corus?

Would be real nice to hear from your experience. Thank you

(I don’t like Rowland, for the record)

I've compared my JR 625 S2 amplifier to several other amplifiers in my system and I prefer the 625 S2. I haven't compared the Corus to any other preamp; therefore I don't know, what I don't know. Unless I compare the Corus to other similarly priced preamps, I simply don't know the strengths or weaknesses it has. For what it's worth, many people have told me the Corus is my weak link and now I'm curious to hear other preamps.

As far as you not liking Rowland...there are no absolutes in audio, only preferences. 

my experience with a 625/aeris/corus set up a few years ago was that in comparison to aeris direct the corus was softer and frankly boring. on the other hand the aeris was too hot. end result is i sold it all for better or worse. things change so it’s hard to compare a few years later but i now have a luxman c-900u plus m-900u and boring w current setup has never crossed my mind. but.. different speakers cables etc. i do i know enough to say that i’m pretty sure that the corus is not a special piece except perhaps with the optional upgraded 9k power supply. fwiw

4425,
I'm glad you love your Luxman components.
