Emotive Audio Sira should be on your list. I don't own one and I don't have any ties to the company but check out the website and call Fred and he will give you some great friendly advice on his designs. There is actually one here for sale - not mine - not any one I know either. A buddy of mine has one and it is an excellent preamp, well designed and very well built, plus customer service is the best also. If I was employed, the Sire would be mine.
High end tube Preamp under $4k used that competes
with or betters the Cary SLP 05. (is there such a preamp?) Looking for suggestions in a tubed preamp on the used market to go with a solid state amplifier (60k ohm input impedance).
This preamp should have:
1. the bass, heft, weight, solidity of the SLP 05
2. clarity and highs that are crisp and extended/ not rolled off
3. some tube sound/ as opposed to solid state
4. some warmth yet detailed
5. dynamics
Thanks
