You might consider the Kora pre-amp. A sonic bargin at $2,100 new. It is remote control, all tubes & sounds great! Give Joe a call at JC Audio for input. He is a real tweaker! I am sure he can help you.

Pre-amp dilemma.... again
Need help to clear my head as to which pre-amp I should go with for a Jeff Rowland model 10...
At the moment, I am driving it directly through a Wadia 850 but feel that it is not as "warm" and "musical" as I would want.
A balanced CAT Ultimate
or
A Synergy IIi
While I know that the Synergy IIi seems like a no brainer because of the synergy of the pre and power amp (no pun intended), I just feel that I want to see if there are better options available that may not be so "safe" but could perhaps yield better sonic returns.
Any thoughts ? ? ?
