McIntosh users.. What is the difference between the c47 and c48 preamps?

The C48 was recently discontinued.  C47 has a more fully featured DAC with DSD and DXD capability where the C48 "only" offered up to 32 bit 192 kHz PCM.  Both support MC and MM phono inputs.  It really all depends on whether you need the fancier DAC or tone control more.

Hope this helps.  Happy listening!
