Recommendations for a tubed preamp

@parkergetdean Have you used the Qualiton C200? I've been looking for a reliable review of this unit from a forum member for quite some time.

Thanks guys, for all your recommendations — I've checked out almost all the companies you mentioned. They’re all great, offering excellent sound quality, just with different flavors. I’m still on the fence about which one to choose!

Hello,

I have Audio Mirror WAVE tube preamp - demo unit for $7000.

It is at the level of VAC Statement and Conradr Jonson ART 88.

Contact me if you are interested.

My youtube feed just came up with the new Galion Navy Tube Preamp.   I watched it and was super impressed with the quality of the components, really top notch, especially the caps.  BTW - No XLR, only RCA.  It is within your price range.  I do not know anything about it, but, I thought I would post it here for your evaluation.  As I said earlier, I am using a McIntosh c2300 with vintage smooth plate Telefunkens and I am sticking with this preamp, so, I have no idea about the story with this new Galion.  fyi, here is a link to the new Galion Navy Tube Preamp video.

I’m wondering what’s going on with the Primaluna EVO 400—there are tons of used ones on HiFiShark. Does that indicate anything?

I’m currently reading about Allnic - it’s embarrassing to admit, but I hadn’t heard of this manufacturer before. I don't see any preowned linestages on hifishark :)

Hi @gabriel123 I have not had it at home. I heard it at a dealer. I also know someone at the factory from which  I can infer the insane dedication and craftmanship that goes into these units in Hungary. It's all about synergy though, it either matches your system or don't....
