I would pass on the Parasound P6 if it sounds anything like the P5, which was meh! I owned a P5 for a week. Did not meet my needs for SQ. Had lots of features though.
Need some ooinions please about a new preamp
Thinking of replacing my close to 20 year old preamp and think I might have it narrowed down to maybe a Parasound P6, Vincent SA-T7 or SA-32, Anthem STR, or possibly a used Mcintosh.
Reasons for these particulars, I want tone controls this time.
I guess my dilemma right now it is that my amp is also that old and trying to decide whether to take a chance with just the preamp or buy an integrated and use the pre-outs to my amp but will have back up power if the old amp finally goes kaput.
The Anthem STR's are on sale right now and if I'm reading right, the integrated is only about $400 more than the preamp. The Vincent is also on sale and thought about B-stock for the Parasound P6 or Hint amp. Thanks in advance.
