Dodd preamp vs. McCormack RLD-1 preamp

Nirvana? Perhaps, but more likely a sickness...a very expensive sickness.

I am really close in my search for the cure......and in my case it isn't RLD-1 which would be like Advil PM ..........it could get me trough the night for few days but .....It does not cure the bacteria that eats through my pockets.

Somebody call the ambulance!!!!

Of course I have not stopped thinking about the Isabella, as the Dodd sounds so good in my system I'm starting to feel the need to compare the two based on the comments above -- darn! Not sure which I would prefer, but I sure get the sense that both may SOTA.

Please DO NOT.....just pretend it does not exist.:0

It turned my World upside down.
My beloved speakers will go up for sell.
I do not know what to do with my CD player now. It seems silly to use it as a transport (but I might keep it).
My other gear is all up for sell........and that is only for one reason...............Devil takes no breaks.

My system is getting a complete make-over because of Isabella and I do not recommend it if you want to keep your sanity.
Rethm Saadhana as well as Sig.30.2 amp (along with Isabella will hit my door steps in few short weeks)
Speakers there after.

Es347 was right . We are nuts.....or at least I am. hahahah!!!!!!

I suspect there is no way to try Isabella and not feel compelled to give the 30.2 a try. Well, with a 30 day trial it might make sense - oh no.... I'm going to give the Dodd some time with the Amperex, and then... well, you can see it coming.
