Tube preamp question
Hoping gto hear from anyone having heard EAR 868, Joule Electra LA 150 ii and Conrad Johnson Premier 16 2 LS.
Bi-amping Bel canto 1000M Ref and Class d audio, speakers von Schweikert vr-35. Essentials I want are liquid midrange (had 4 CJs in past and am an avid fan) but wonder if either the Joule or EAR can match that midrange together with some resolution and sound-staging not present in earlier CJs. Any opinions, please? Bottom line: How is the midrange in the Joule and EAR in comparison with the LS 16 ii?
