I posted on the amplification board, but seem to be getting responses mostly from PP folks.
I currently have a deHavilland UV-3 and it works surprisingly well for the price.
The Fi b2 line stage seems to be an obvious choice. I'm also thinking about an AN (UK) M-3 and upgrading to an M-5 over time and maybe one of the Supratek models, if they are really still in business. Blue Circle is also a possibility. I've only heard the M-3 amd M-5.
I'm looking for something without any vestage of a "vintage" tube sound.
Any others to add to the list in this price range (around $7-8K)? Fi owners? I could go custom, but most of the nice custom preamps I see cost more.
Thanks.
