I cant speak on the Freya+ but I have had a ARC LS15 for over 15 years and its a great preamp. I've change tube to Tele 7dj8 and its sounds fabulous. Its now in a second system with a ARC LS25mki taking its place.

Over on AudioAsylum, several people have bought the Freya+ and have very nice things to say about it. At $900, it is not particularly cheap, though certainly not priced in the high-end category. If you want a new ARC preamp, you're going to spend several multiples or more than what the Freya+ costs, though you can get one of ARC's discontinued and much older models on the used market in roughly the same price range as the Shiit. |
@zerobias HiFI shark haas a silver LS15 coming out of Az for a good price https://www.hifishark.com/model/audio-research-ls-15. I have nothing to do with the seller at all. The ARC LS15 will kill the Freya+ in sound. I would highly recommend get a ARC piece over Shitt. Shitt makes some nice cheap gear, I had a Mani phono stage and was very happy but then I finally got a ARC PH3 and now Im more that happy. Good luck and happy hunting zerobias. |
