Re: Counterpoint Preamps: SA-3.1 vs SA-5.1 ???

Posted by plantsman on March 3, 2007 at 16:34:15:
The Lazarus preamp and the AudioTropic Moebius immediately spring to mind and I have vague recollections of seeing one or two other low profile tube preamps but the Counterpoints are definitely much more common. The 5.1 was not a tube eater as far as I can recall. You should check out the Alta Vista website and maybe give them a call. I think your best case situation might be to find a Counterpoint preamp for sale that has already had some Alta Vista upgrades done.
