Used preamp under $400...


to pair with a newly inherited Parasound HCA 750A. and I'm looking to set up a secondary 2 channel system in a "new" media room. Remote is required but phono is not.

Will be driving Spica TC 60's at first but will probably swap those out for something a little more well balanced on the bass at lower volumes.

I appreciate your help and will be relying on you opinion as auditioning a bunch of used gear probably won't be happening.

Onkyo P-308 pre!
one of the best pres made.  Check flea bay, or anywhere else.  
Amazing preamp.
 
Thanks, perhaps I am not looking at the right unit but those seem to be going for $650-ish on said flea of bay.


patience.patience.

keep looking.

Ayre, B&K, 

or the Onkyo P-304 is also good!

 A used rotel, paasound.

There is a bunch of amazing pres for around 4$
Enjoy the hunt, be vigilant, 
 Research, and if u see one, snatch it up fast!

 
Thanks, I'm not opposed to buying new per se, just a believer that one can get a bigger bang for the buck buying used...usually. Of course there is always the possibility that one is buying somebody else's problem. 

I like the look of that saga2 and I'm a fan of having a tube in a preamp, which is the setup I have in my main system.
