Thanks for all the responses.
The C-33 is a solid state preamp. However, Adjusting the balance may be just the remedy to center the image. Once I get this cleared up I'm fairly confident the Mac will oust the PV-5. Everything else about the preamp seemed so "right"
One of the issues with the C-33 was it had a lot more buttons and knobs than I am accustomed to, and it did not come with a users manual.
