Thank you gentlemen for your thoughts. I did speak with Mark yesterday and he was helpful as usual. I just wanted some end-user input. Turns out I found a 90/99 combo for sale local to me here on Agon. I'm picking them up today and will share my thoughts once I let them settle in. I do like the Perseus too (better looking anyway). This was too good a deal to pass up and perhaps I'll continue to experiment with other gear although you always tell yourself, "ok, after this one I'm done", but that doesn't work does it!
Rogue Stereo 90 & Perseus vs Cronus
Hello:
I currently have a Rogue Cronus integrated amp (with upgraded signal tubes; RCA clear tops, RCA LBP, & Mullard preamp tube) driving Totem Arros. I'm thinking of upgrading to a Rogue Stereo 90 and Perseus preamp. Can anyone tell me what differences I might hear between these 2 set-ups? Is it worth the extra cash? I have no real complaints about the Cronus other than wondering if the upgrade will sound even better, you know the feeling. I listen primarily to jazz and classical on this system from both CD (Jolida JD100) and vinyl (VPI Scout).
Thanks!
