Hi everyone
I need some suggestions regarding suitable pre-amps for my newly acquired Quad 303 (late model, 90k serial number).
I am currently using a Rega P25 as my only source and a NAD 3020i as the pre-amp.
My budget might stretch to £200 for something exceptional but I would rather spend up to £150.
I used to have a naim nap/nac 90 pre/power combo but never really liked them (I have had good experiences with more expensive / older naim gear though!). I then bought a mission Cyrus one that really didn't suit me at all (too harsh / trebly).
I have been looking at Quad pre amps, but there are wildly varying opinions, I have also seen that you can get valve phono pre-amps imported from China that also strongly divide opinion.
All advice appreciated.
