I'm thinking of replacing my BAT VK-3i preamp. My system consists of C-J P11A amp, Meridian 508.20 cdp, and Silverline Sonata speakers. I listened to anything except rap and country. Price range is $1000-1500 used. Thanks.
there's a melos sha-gold f/s here on a-gon for $700. send it to melos audio restorations in vegas for their upgrades (keep the photentiometer wolume control if it's still in good shape). it'll still be less than $1500, & it's a steal at the price, imho... even as-is, i tink these are great preamps...
The Adcom 750 is a reasonably priced, well performing piece -- but, IMO, so are: the Melos (as in doug, above) and your BAT. I "third" the first two questions; not knowing what you don't like about the BAT, I may be wasting your time proposing the Adcom... Good luck!
