Thanks everyone for the responses. I'm now trying to decide between the TLC-1 and the AL L-1. After I buy and listen, I will post what I find.
Recommended preamp for McCormack DNA-125??
Audiogon and the Asylum are full of threads on good preamps for the McCormack DNA-1 and DNA-0.5. The DNA-125 supposedly has a less warm, and more lean and lively sound than the earlier McCormacks. Does anyone have any recommended preamps for the DNA-125? I suppose if something worked well with the DNA-225 it would go well with the 125. I'd be happy to go with tubes.
