Personal Preamp Evolution

I a couple out I had an Audioprism Mantissa and a Supratek Syrah as well in between the Edge and the Herron.

Latest Update: 

 Not much here, since the mid 80's I've had the following:

Luxman C-120A
Acoustat TNP
Music Reference RM-5 (classic silver finish)
Dyna PAS 2
Music Reference RM-5 mk II (got the RM5 upgraded)
Dyna PAS 3
Hegeman Hapi 2
Superphon Revelation Basic Dual Mono
Technics SU-9070
Aragon 24K

Others Auditioned: Crown Straightline One, PS Audio IVH, PS Audio 4.6, Moscode Minuet, Audio Research SP8

For a long time, I've had int amps or tube amps with volume controls and used a small source selector box, so it was more of a straight wire with gain. It's been 10-15 years since I had a preamp in my system and I miss having one :)

Currently using an early Aragon 24K with a B&K ST202 & a GemTune GS-01

At the current time, I have just moved overseas to Israel & awaiting my gear that will hopefully be here in a couple of months.  I’ve gotten the British shoe box sized integrated amp bug and am awaiting a Meridian 551 & a Linn Majik I.
