I'm currently using the Parasound P6 to the A21 out to Salk SC Songtowers. It's the best sound I've had to date. Note that the P6 has a ton of features including a home theater bypass. I also love the high pass and low pass filter control for subwoofers.
Upgrading System...Help/opinions on Parasound and others?
Hi! I'm new to Audiogon...have been into hi-fi for about 10 years now.
I'm going to be slowly upgrading my system over the next year or two. For a turntable, I am thinking Music Hall mmf-7.3, with Schiit Mani phono stage. For speakers, I'm most likely going with Joseph Audio (not sure which ones yet). I already have a Marantz CD-6006 which I adore. ANYWAY...my question is more about a pre-amp/power amp. My current system is listed at the bottom if you're interested.
My short list is:Parasound NewClassic 200 Pre (would use with my current AMC 2100 amp)
Prima Luna EVO 100 Integrated Amp (if going tube)Vincent SV-237MK (also if going tube and I feel like spending a little more)
NAD C165BEE
Any opinions on these pairings are welcome, as in, would the pre and power amp do the turntable and speakers justice? What I'm really looking for is a nice pre/power amp that will pair well with the 7.3 turntable, drive good speakers, has tone control and preferably a bypass-able phono stage so that I can use the Mani.
Thank you kindly! :)
