Get the best pre you can get, tube would be nice with your ribbons or a top of the line passive. I would do this first. I have read that the new Ampzilla amp is one of the best with the RM-40's. As you may already know, the RM-40's are not plug and play and need to be fine tuned by hand after you get set up with new amp so you will have to start over when you change amps. I am a vmps owner for 6 years now (super tower/r's) and may go with the RM-40's soon myself.
spend more money on pre or power amp ?
if I had $10,000 to spend on a power and pre amp. Would I split it equally in two ? Or would I give 5000 to power and 10,000 to pre or vice versa ?
My system is a Wadia 21 cd player, VMPS RM 40's and a classe CAV 150. I find the system sounding quite harsh. Any help with this.
