Z-Man Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 I recently came into posession of a pair of McIntosh MC75's that I'm having restored, and I'm looking for a preamp to mate with them. I'd like to stay tube, and I need phono stage. Any ideas under $1000? I'll go used, if need be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolff Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 Conrad Johnson PV12 can be had for around $1000 used. Friend of mine has one that I've listened to in my system quite a bit. The phono stage is excellent, not an afterthought. You may not feel like upgrading for quite sometime. I think this a great one for jazz. Another way to go is build your own from a kit. Take a look at the Foreplay(pre) and Seduction(phono) at bottlehead.com. I plan on building these soon.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrugs Posted August 27, 2003 Report Share Posted August 27, 2003 Personally, I would ask the tube heads at Audioasylum.com this question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
