| Tube Preamp W/Phono Stage Suggestions... I really like my Rogue Audio RP-1. I think the 1 and 5 are both based on their RP-X platform. It help take the edge off my old Rotel class D amp and create some space. I called them up prior to purchase and they answered the phone and answered my ... | |
| This is pretty funny and probably true for most of us A lot of stuff may be on the market soon. I went to a demo event in Denver at ListenUp last night. It had to be 99% male and the average age had to be ......well old. Audiophile types are old dudes. | |

| Specific Pre-Amp advice I will +1 on the Rogue Audio RP -5 piece. I only have the RP-1 but it is built on the same technology with less features. The RP-1 create nice space and air in my system civilized my class D amp. The RP-5 utilizes 12AU7 tubes. It also has a user c... | |
| New to forum and Vinyl I agree with the previous poster. Save your money and get a $500 Pro-Ject or Rega. They are good value. Get it set up correctly and you won't have to mess with it. Spend your time listening instead of tinkering. | |

| Budget Audiophile Looking For Amplifier Suggestions My question is does 10 year old gear perform as well as same price current production gear? For instance, something like the new Peachtree line made in Canada. | |
