tubesforhifi VTA sp14 or shiit freya

Easy, VTA SP14. Roy can help you improve it as well if you want it to truly sing. Either way as much as I like my Freya, the SP14 is in another class all together. I am not sure if Roy has finished his move or not. It's possible that he just hasn't updated his site, you should email him. If you want a last preamp, Don Sachs does some major upgrades to it, but I believe that he has a pretty long waiting list. Ray knows most of Don's mods and can get you pretty close if you are in a hurry. Anyway, the SP14 is the last preamp you'll likely buy. If you get a standard one you can always go back and hot rod it later.

thank you lous.  I have read all of both of their sites.  I am not sure the rest of my equipment is at the level to match Don's hot rod models.  I have emailed Roy and he was really helpful.  I might get the basic SP14 with upgraded tubes from Roy.

I've had an SP14 for several years now, which I built stock then upgraded as funds allowed. 
I've brought home preamps from VAC and McIntosh and preferred the SP14.
