In Reply to: Been using a Schitt Saga+ for a while now and quite happy... but... posted by musetap on September 9, 2023 at 10:27:41:
I'm thoroughly enjoying my Schiit Kara but it might be more than you're looking for. It offers unbalanced RCA and balanced XLR IN/OUTS.I can honestly say that I prefer Kara in solid-state mode over the Freya+ in solid-state mode. I don't care for passive mode much in either preamp. I get much better dynamics and 'slam' with gain. In my setup the Kara sounds best set to 12dB gain driving my amp over XLR balanced interconnects.
As an aside, even though the Freya+ was good in (6SN7) tube mode it didn't quite do it for me. I was expecting too much having once owned the Cary SLP-05.
SMSL D400EX USB DAC. Mac Mini M2 / Roon, Schiit Kara preamp, NAD C298 Purifi Eigentakt Class D Amp.
