I'm using an Odyssey Tempest with my monoblocks and I love the sound. Very smooth and musical and detailed too. Listening to music on this combo sounds very natural. When you turn up the volume, there's no congestion whatsoever. It just lets more music through. I haven't used the phono section but I'm sure it's on par with the rest of the preamp. The Tempest is exactly the same as the Symphonic Line preamp that sells for $3K.
Pre amp for Odyssey amp
HI, I finally decided to get into high end gear. I ordered Odyssey's dual mono amp, but can't decide on the pre amp. Any comments on Odyssey's Tempest? I would like to go with a ss pre with a good phono section w/remote, or will consider pre with outboard phono, and stay under $3,500.00. I mainly listen to hard rock and have a M&K powered sub and satellites. Your suggestions would be very helpful. Thanks, Wayno
