Depends what you want to spend. Ken Shindo says that he does not consider any of is pre's better than another. Just different flavors. You have to find the one that will give you the tonal qualities that you prefer. I agree with the advice to call Matt Rotunda. He has heard them all

Am buying a used set of shindo sinhonia amps? Any thoughts regarding the appropriate shindo preamp? Any thoughts on the sinhonia in general? I will be pairing them with a pair of Devore silverbacks. I currently have mcintosh gear (mc252 and c2300). How do you think they'll compare? Let me know.
