I actually started a thread today about the RP1, so thank you, this helps
Looking for a tube Preamp new or used for under $2000...
Hi all,
I am looking for a tube preamp for my Parasound A21 amp. I currently have a Parasound p6 preamp, but have been told that a “Tube” preamp not a SS preamp would make a huge improvement. My budget is $2k however, I would prefer to spend less! I am looking at McIntosh and audio research preamps. I am willing to purchase an older preamp, but not one that I would need to send it into be serviced. Any suggestions? Thanks!

@markhh2 +1. I have a bunch of NOS 6sn7 and 12sn7 tunes. Several Sylvania, Raytheon, RCA, GE, etc. For grins, I bought a pair of new production Tung-Sol 6SN7GTB from Viva Tubes. Very reasonably priced. They’re my favorite of all of them.
I’m also using Telefunken ECC801S tubes. |
