DeHavilland and Cary make zero global feeback pre's with much less gain. - Rick W 09:51:43 03/05/19 (17)

Different tubes - Salectric 11:02:26 03/05/19 (15)

Yes, thought the different tubes was part of the explanation. What about...... - Rick W 11:53:47 03/05/19 (14)

6SN7 - Salectric 15:30:30 03/05/19 (5)

Uh oh. Loose bass and an amorphous soundstage is not what I'm looking for. - Rick W 16:19:00 03/05/19 (4)

Best sounding linestage I ever had used 6SN7 - AbeCollins 21:01:04 03/05/19 (3)

Yes, I've considered that one. It has 17db gain single ended and more in balanced though. - Rick W 09:54:23 03/06/19 (2)

Maybe the Cary SLP-98L - AbeCollins 11:42:26 03/06/19 (1)

I've heard it. Certainly wasn't bad, but think it'd just be a sideways move for me. nt - Rick W 12:58:52 03/06/19 (0)

I think you've mistaken the function and purpose of a preamp - airtime 12:16:50 03/05/19 (3)

WTF? Why would you assume my sources are crap? - Rick W 12:42:08 03/05/19 (1)

Sorry let me rephrase that - airtime 13:40:36 03/05/19 (0)

I've never found the polarity an issue, as some amps invert as well... - David S. 14:52:52 03/04/19 (0)

CJ polarity? - M3 lover 13:07:03 03/04/19 (1)

Like I said in the post below CJ IS doing something RIGHT - airtime 08:30:28 03/04/19 (2)

If you look at my profile you'll see I own a slightly modded CJ pv10. - Rick W 10:32:11 03/04/19 (1)

I hear you and agree and that's why... - airtime 10:53:55 03/04/19 (0)

They may have gain but they are extremely transparent - airtime 16:59:05 03/03/19 (0)
