Reasonably Priced PreAmp without Phono ?


Looking for any advice. This is for my second home. Amp is a McIntosh 7150.
This system will be used in my second home strictly for cd/dvd playback.
Thanks.

I have located a used Krell KAV280P. Any opinions ? What is a fair price for this ?
I've never heard a Krell preamp.

Your request doesn't state a price or a solid state or tubed preference.

FWIW, I'll through out my opinion. An Audio Mirror T-61 remote tubed line stage. I have the next model up that also includes a phono stage. There are some good comments on this forum regarding the T-61 model.
If you don't need more than two inputs, how about the Shanling PH3000 headphone amp? Tube-based but wide bandwidth (spec'd out to 100KHz), with two line inputs and a pair of line outputs, 2 Neutrik headphone jacks, and an ALPS pot, all for $399.

I'm sorely tempted by this piece myself.
