Odyssey Stratos : what preamp ?


Hi,

i have trouble deciding which preamp to use with the Stratos. I am interested in the Adcom 750 and the Bryston 25, but was wondering if any Stratos owners out there have any experience to share ?

I love the Stratos, but unfortunately i ma having real trouble driving it directly with a Wadia CDP (static problem). Hence the need for a pre.

Cheers
Xav

I second the Rogue 66 - swapped out a Bryston BP-25 for the Rogue and mated with my 4B-ST (similar to Odyssey somewhat) and the warmth of the tubes really made a difference. I generated a post a month or so ago indicating my observations of the BP-25 versus the Rogue so here it is again in a nutshell - the BP-25 is like a black and white high definition television - extremely accurate in presentation but sterile in feeling, the Rogue on the other hand is like a decent Sony color tv - not as defined but much warmer and IMHO much more pleasant.
