    Upgrade to RC 1590 Preamp or stick with RC 995?

    I currently use the RC 995 preamp. Its a very musical preamp that doesn't lack a lot compared to high end preamps I've heard. But I'm wondering about upgrading to the RC 1590. Any comments on the 1590? Is it too very musical or does it lack compared to their older preamps like my 995? I need tape inputs and outputs, as I'm aware the 1590 does have 1 set of these connections, though not labelled tape. But the 995 is more friendly for taping with its 2 tape selections and separate source setting compared to what you can listen to on the preamp. I just want to see if getting the 1590 would be worth it, especially since the cost is much higher. I do like the D/A stage in the preamp which I would make use of. But I'm an analog guy and wouldn't want the preamp to mess with the sound.
