parasound 200 pre or zpre3 or what other pre for 2 channel


I need sub out . I was considering the PT-100 but deep down not the biggest fan of emo sound.  I think parasound makes better stuff.

I need sub pre and I do like bass/treble controls sometimes. I like that those functions can be controlled on the remote for some of the parasound stuff..good feature...
I want to spend in the $750 and under range which the parasounds can be had at.   thoughts?

Some newer Parasound preamps appear to be using switching power supplies.  From pictures, it looks like Zpre is still a linear power supply.

The P5/P6 are larger cases, but with a big amount of open space inside and what looks like a switching power supply.  The only thing you get here is a built-in DAC and more bells/whistles.

I would assume the same approach goes for the 200.
For $750< Just get a Schiit Freya, or used Freya+,
3 preamps in one, SS, Tube and Passive, with remote, with probably the best analogue volume control you can get.https://www.schiit.com/products/freya-1

I bought a ZPre3 and am extremely happy with it. I didn’t need the built-in DAC or phono stage offered in the 200, so it was an easy decision, and I really do believe, internally, that is the only difference.

Can’t beat it for the money. I bought mine as an open-box through Safe and Sound, so it was even less expensive and fully warranted.
