Amp/Preamp Asylum Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here. |

OK, so I've decided that I want to see what I'm missing, if anything, in my current system using a Canary Passive Pre. The system sounds great to me, but I have nothing to compare it to. My Yamaha CD player is only ordinary, so I'm looking to warm it up a bit. I would like to try a tube pre and I would like to stay close to $700-800 (new or used). This will only be used for my CD player and tuner. The other alternative is to buy a tubed CD player, but I'm not sure I can do this within my price range.I've been looking online and haven't really found anything that fits the bill. Some are just too old and new ones seem to lack a pass thru. Also, I don't need a phono stage built in, but that wouldn't stop me if everything else was good.
I need three inputs (CD, tuner and one of them a pass thru for my phono stage) and a single output.
My turntable (modernized Sonographe SG-3 with a Sumiko Premier MMT arm) is run through an EAR 834P with a home-built CineMag SUT for LOMC carts, so I just need a pass thru (tape loop?) for this.
Any suggestions on models to look for would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I am using a B&K Reference 200.2 solid state amp.
