Rogue 66 or AES pre?

Bradz,give the 66 at leat one or two months so you get realy familiar with the sound.At that point you might want to do the upgrade.I am glad you like it.Its worth way more than it cost's.
To many equate cost to performance and belive it has to be better if it costs more.
The Inner Ear Magazine uses this approach.When you cut through the BS you realize all magazines sell adds not sound Musical advice.

I agree with your thoughts Leaf. I'll think to wait a couple months for the upgrade is a good idea. It'll give my ears a chance to know the sound. Can you recommend a ic between the 66 and amp and also tweaks(cones,tubes,etc.)? Thanks, Brad

I use a sand filled cigar box the preamp to add some wait.I also dampened out the entire body with soundcoat.It adds significant weight.No cones as of yet.Mullard 12AU7 in the line stage.I use Coincident IC very good.There is a used set on the site at 200.00 a virtual steal.

Hi Leafs, Which soundcoat product do you use on the Rogue? I looked up the website and saw several products. Thanks.

I get it from the Parts Connection.Go to thier web site.They are having a big sale till the end of June.Good luck
