I own the 4.6 and it matches well with my Classe power amp. Warm, huge soundstage with tremendous, groundbreaking low-end extension. Vocals have a more harmonic signature that can't be matched IMHO. Again I'm refering to the 4.6, a step up from the 4.5. I'm surprised Stenho feels the build quality is poor, the EC is built like a tank.
Any experience w/ Electrocompaniet EC 4.5 preamp?
I haven't been able to find any reviews on this preamp. How does it compare w/ the EC 4.7 preamp? The system I am thinking of putting together is: Pass x150, EMC 1 mk2 cdp, and a ???? preamp. My budget for the preamp is more limited for the meantime so I am want something cheaper, but still high quality. Thanks.
