Preamp to pair with X250.5


Hi all,

Looking for a preamp to pair with Pass Lab X250.5...

Looking at Coincident Statement Linestage; Modwright 36.5, Aesthethix Calypso Signature or CAT SL1...

I have a CEC TL1 CD Transport.

Any recommendation.. or would you suggest another preamp...

Thank you.

Clarrie, if you're on a bit of a budget, I'd seriously look at their MP-3. It's a wonderful sounding unit that they usually mate with their M-60 mono amps at the audio shows; CES, RMAF.

If you want to take it up a couple notches(think state of the art), you can't go wrong with their MP-1. I've owned an MP-1 Mk.3 for a few years now AND LOVE! It replaced the CAT.

Finally, if you listen to vinyl, both are available with phono and I'd definitely recommend that route.
Sorry, both are made by Atma-Sphere. The MP-1 is a two chassis unit with separate power supply.
