upgrading my integrated amp

(1) Rega Elicit will pleasantly surpise you (choice based on a modest budget increase)

(2) if so, then you may also consider upgrading to the REGA Couple ICs and REGA Quattro Pro biwire speaker cables: there is a certain REGA symmetry when inserted in a REGA kit. I use them in my B-system and they acquited thermselves VERY WELL in my A-system on a trial basis (REGA OSIRIS integrated, REGA ISIS Valve cdp, REGA R9 speakers ) until I moved up the food chain significantly $$-wise to all NORDOST FREY cables kit.

(3)Ditto for the REGA power chord:

REGA cables they are all made by KLOSS in Germany to REGAspecs and are Goliath killers in terms of performance to price.

Right now I got to admit to leaning towards Rogue Audio but have not dismissed the Elicit just yet. I do like the Rega house sound, its just that tubes have fascinated me for sometime now.
I must admit at one point I was considering an all Rega kit, Elicit, Saturn, RS5's and a turntable.

thanks for your input Akg.

Yes. I own the Cronus Magnum. I'm wondering if this super upgrade refers to the kt120's. I called Rogue to ask if I could do the kt120 upgrade with my Magnum and they said yes. Everything is in place except the tubes obviously and I need a new top with larger knock outs to accommodate the larger tubes. All in all not a huge expense.

If you're in Ontario by chance let me know. I visit Toronto, Kingston and head to Montreal for the jazz festival every June.

Im on the other side of the country. Im curious what your system is with the Cronos , and any tips or suggestions.

Ive asked for serial numbers from the unit Im considering. Hoping that Rogue could provide me with some info on the unit.Are they the kind of company to respond to such requests?

Look into Hegel h-100 or h-200.
