Preamp Suggestions


I am new to higher or mid end equipment. I love my music and would like to get more out of it. I am also a student and of limited funds. If any one has experience with this equip and can help me please share your knowledge. I listen to rock, folk, jazz and am more and more listening to classical. I feel my Dyn audience 50's, NAD c370 sound great with my homemade speaker stands but are lacking an emotional quality. I have a Dual 1219 turntable w/ a Shure V15 II and NAD PP-II phono stage. Main Question is I am looking at purchasing an ADCOM GFP-565 Pre-Amplifier for $300. Does anyone have experience with this piece? or have recommendations. It seems to have good reviews and a good phono stage. Will be adding a DAC and Thorens TD 150 MKII later. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Oh many digital files through computer hence DAC to be added. Is this Pre-amp recomendable and will it help give the music more emotion with out to much taken from the signal path. thsnks

I vote yes for the adcom, a definate step up in the phono section, I auditioned a pair of speakers with that preamp.
I think I would simply replace the NAD prono preamp with something better, perhaps a Gram Slee Gram Amp2 SE or something similar. I don't think the Adcom will be a step up from your current NAD C370 in most areas of performance...

Thank you both. I am also trying to get a more emotion out of the music, but without flavoring it to much. It is great now but a bit clinical. Would prefer to go solid state and did not know if this pre could help. Or any other suggestions. Thank you all.
