Hi ps audio friends, i need some advice. I like a lot the sound of ps audio. I have the legacy focus se speakers with ps audio bhk 250 with the direct stream dac mk1 as preamp, i look to purchase a preamp to improve the sound , my firt look is the bhk preamp, also look the new mcintosh c28 or c27 beacuse have phono in and like vinyl to much, but i listen much rock music the 70, 80 90, but i dont now macitosh will change the sound of the system to bright , becuse i like much warm and punch sound, and also cosidered to upvrade the bhk 250to the bhk 300 mono is much diference on improved the sound with monoblock than stereo amp , i look also the mcintosh mc 611mono, i think what is better combinatii the bhk preamp with bhk 300 mono or the mcintosh c28 with mc 611monos, let me now, becuase i hope to do right decision to improve the sound thanks alfredo
For what its worth, I went from the BHK Pre with 250 to the 300’s mono and ARC LS28 SE. I like you prefer the warm sound of a tube pre, especially with my Focal Sopra’s which can get bright with the wrong system. For example I tried Nordost speaker wire with silver…nope…
I found the pre did much more than the jump from 250 to 300 mono. Both are nice, but bigger bang with pre IMO.
Thanks for thd advice, i now the sound depend of the speakers in my case the legacy focuse are not brighther, is on the warm and good bass
My dream are bhk pre , bhk 300 and the p20 with my direcstream dac , i hope that
With all the hype on the PZ here, many P20’s are coming available… post a WTB in the marketplace.
