need suggestions, pre+amp for MBL 111F/101e


considering the 111F/101E for 2.0 setup, need suggestions for a pre/amp combo

aesthetics are a big factor, mcintosh is what i'm thinking, unless anyone has a better suggestion, a bit offtopic, but how are mcintosh's DAC/Transports?

will be buying used off audiogon/ebay, budget is about 20-25k for all the components

any suggestions/advice would be appreciated

thanks

I am currently using McIntosh 1.2K's with my 111F's (and 111e's before that) and they handle them very nicely.

I think you will find the DAC's in the MCD-500 and newer MCD-1100 to be very competitive at their price points. You can connect two external servers to the 500 and three to the 1100. You retain SAD playback capabilities with both which is a plus
