Thanks, this is helpful. I'm kind of banking on the assumption that I'll be able to find a Forte (which hasn't been the case so far - still looking). What about the conrad johnson PF-1?
Amp and Pre-amp recommendation
Have been a hifi enthusiast for years, but have just now decided to build my first high-end system. I enjoy speaker building. And so, plan to build the Eros Mk II as the speakers for the system. Next two decisions are amp and pre-amp. I'm considering the Monarchy SM70 and the Odyssey Khartago for power. Also, thinking of a used Forte Model 2 for the pre-amp. For source, turntable is still open - Rega Planar 2 maybe and a Squeezebox through a Monarchy DIP.
I'd love to have some feedback as this is my first go at this. Especially on the amp and pre-amp. Maybe there are other amps in this range ($1000) that would be good fits, or other pre-amps in the range of the Forte ($300-$400) that would be good options.
