Best Preamp $2,000.00 budget

I recently got a Sebring 300B from Ultra Fi and I have been doing a similar search. The one's that have got my interest are Artemis Labs, Music First, & a DIY from Slagle autoformer's. Finance's arn't there yet for me, so I haven't auditioned any of them. Like to hear what you go with & how it works out.

Check out deHavilland- Mercury2 or Ultraverve.

Racamuti,

I let a Mercury get away at $1600.00 last week. I sold a UV-2 at the end of '06 (never used it)and it was hard to unload (with remote) at $1600.00. No resale value for DeHavilland sad to say. But I still think both would be worth a try.

the best Audio Note you can afford I imagine would be terrific

No brainer,Audio Horizons TP 2.1 or a 2.0,I believe there is a TP 2.0 with all the options available on this site.If you require some more particulars on this outstanding pre amp e-mail me privately.
