Hello everyone!
Its been a long time since ive been on this forum, because i have been enjoying my Buffalo32s --> YBM audio built Beta22 Balanced --> HD800 Balanced setup for so long. However, i am looking to incorporate speakers into my setup, and am looking for a little bit of advice.
I need a preamp. I have 2 options in mind. For the first option, i alter the volume control in my Beta22 to have a remote control and put a better attenuator in it (current one is only 24 steps, not enough for a speaker system IMO). I would then buy a power amp/speaker combo that i would enjoy, but i would only have a little over $1k to spend on it.
The second option is to sell my balanced Beta22 and buy an Audio-GD Pheonix. This would be a little bit of a downgrade in sound, from what little Pheonix listening ive done, but would net me 800 dollars or so for my power amp/speakers and provide me with some awesome preamp options, because Audio-GD did a great job with the Pheonix as far as inputs/outputs and a remote, LCD volume control.
Thank you so much for you help. I love my Beta, but im really looking forward to some high quality speaker sound!
