You could also consider a used Audio Research LS-26 which is full truly differential balanced design on all in/outputs. Great unit and within your price range
Pre-amp with balanced suggestions?
I'm looking to add a pre-amp to my setup. I've been 100% computer audio for awhile, but have a turntable that I need to integrate now.
I need something with balanced in and out, and I don't need a phono stage in the pre (I have a nice outboard phono pre).
I'm looking for something under $3000 used, transparency, detail, and holographic imaging are my priorities. Something that adds color is not what I want, just neutral and clean.
So what might you suggest?
