I have pretty much narrowed down my decision of tube pre-amps to the Golden Tube SEP-1 Special Addition or the Audio Experiences Symphonies. Both are in my price range and seem reputable. My amp is an Audire Forte (solid state) dual monoblock with RCA and balanced XLR inputs. Only the SEP-1 offers balanced outputs. I can also get the SEP-1 for a hair cheaper, but it's used. The Syphonies comes new with a 2 year warranty. Any thoughts? Oh, by the way, my speakers are A/D/S L780.
Thank you in advance for your reply!
