Best tube pre under 1500?

A tubed unit either new or used. Thanks, Brad

I've seen your name before...I believe you advised me on tubes for a Sigma dac once. Anyway, I'll look into the Sound Valves pre. What do you think about Rogue pre amps?

Thank you all for your responses! You been alot of help. Best Regards, Brad

My point exactly Leafs...try the 66 and if it works, great! If not, turn around and save for a 99 or similar caliber tube pre. I haven't heard either of these units but I'll have a chance to this weekend. Couldn't remember from prior posts if you own the 99,66,or other?

Hi Leafs, How would you describe the sound since the upgrade to the Magnum status? Thanks

Wouldn't you know...after I've purchused a 66 lsr for $850. a gentleman wrote saying he has a Rogue 99 in the box for $1100.! Is this too good to be true? I hate to back out of the 66 deal but, the 99 seems like a killer deal if it is the black/lsr version. Any advice? Thanks, Brad
