In Reply to: Audio Research VSi-60 vs Rogue Cronus Magnum side-by-side comparison posted by AbeCollins on October 24, 2014 at 13:37:27:
I've been playing with the idea of getting a tube pre-amplifier or integrated amp for my office system (currently powered by a Cayin HA-1A as a pre- and a Parasound HCA-2200 mk ii driving relatively new ATC SCM 11 mk2's). My cost range is fromo $1200 to $2300. You have been very positive in your experience with the Cronus Magnum and I'm happy to learn from a post below that with some upgrades the unit can become more transparent with other improved qualities at a relatively modest cost. If I go with a pre-amp, it will have to have relatively low gain (8 - 10) or I won't get the benefit of a wide attenuation range on a tube unit. If that doesn't pan out, I'll come closer to getting the Cronus Magnum.
Comparison evaluations always make more sense to me; thanks.
Cheers,
Ian
