RE: Ranking Of Vintage Tube Preamps While We Are At It

Don,
Doesn't the Citation 1V have passive EQ unlike the 1?
The Pacific Rim seems to like the Fisher 50C over the 80C for that reason and a 50C sells for 2-3 times as much as an 80C.
As for the C-20, I had one and it sounded the same to me original and "restored." My impression was slow and muddy and that was with an MC225 and horns.
The C-22 that followed sounded lots better but possibly to much to the opposite extreme.
