I have been slowly building this system with hand me downs then some used purchases and only lately some higher fidelity units. The most recent purchase is the A3cr preamp (which I love). It replaced a Bryston 0.5 which I enjoyed for a long time, but didn't have enough inputs for me and I wanted to move up in sound quality a bit. The A3 is warm and beautiful. Tubes are not an option for me since my system sits on alot and my preference runs more towards the analytical (though not harsh). The system has really gotten very good, but I wonder what the next steps might be. Nothing extravagant is possible, but bit by bit I'm trying to make the system better. Thanks for your help.
After checking out your system, I would probably get a pair of Monarchy SE100 Deluxe amps. They don't cost much on the used market and would make a world of difference in your set-up. Good luck
