Thanks Abstract7, I am also exploring power regenerators and would certainly like to try before I buy. Since relocating from Boston, it's not real convenient to bring stuff home, so I appreciate all the feedback from fellow Audiogoners. By the way, my system is listed in the Virtual Systems (Large Room ...). I hope my use of "congested" is correct -- it just doesn't sound like everything is coming through clearly when a lot is going on. Rgd, I love your analogy. Argent, if you would be kind enough to let us know what you think when you audition the CJ Premier, that would be great. Thanks all. Any more feedback would be appreciated.
Tube preamp for Bryston 7B-ST
I'm thinking about switching out my Bryston BP-25 preamp to a tube preamp. While my bass is solid, the midrange can sound congested with dense musical material. There are a number of choices with great reviews. Please help! I'd love to hear about your experiences combining tubes with SS amps, especially the 7B-ST's. Thanks in advance.
