In Reply to: SET wtih passive pre? posted by adaug on February 12, 2014 at 17:43:36:
I'm using a Passive Pre (an FT "Little Wonder") with my Wright Sound 3.5 (2A3) mono blocks, and it sounds great - very transparent of course, a slightly less forward sound.
I think the amps are less important than the source driving the signal (in my case, an Oppo 105, which has lots of output), low capacitance interconnects, and sensitive speakers.
Fortunately, I have all these elements in the chain.
I have the Wrightsound WPL20 Pre-amp hooked up so I can use its wonderful phono stage; but, when playing the Oppo CDs, it isn't turned on.
