In Reply to: RE: What do we actually need a preamp for these days...? posted by Eli Duttman on January 8, 2021 at 12:08:51:
For its Passive and buffered modes. In buffer mode it uses a single 6SN7 tube. This unit is unity gain and all my sources have enough gain where the Saga doesn't run out of gas. My phono preamp has enough gain in MC mode so I can still play my LP's loud, that was my only concern when I first got the Saga. I still have never maxed out the volume control on it which is a multiple Relay/Resistor volume control.
This Saga Plus is most transparent controller/preamp buffer I have ever had in my system and that's using it in buffer mode where tube is used. It is even more transparent than the BAT VK-30 preamp I had. The only change I did to the Saga was changed out the Wima coupling caps and put in Jantzen Supreme Z caps. That one change made it even better sounding and more transparent. It also has quite a few inputs that I can connect all my Sources. I have no desire to go back to a regular preamp now that I know what I have been missing. :)
