    Pre-amp help

    OK so here's the deal. I want to incorporate a 2ch listening system into my HT. I'm new to pre-amps so any info will help. What im trying to do is have a 2ch pre for audio but be able to send the signal to my prepro when not listening to music, like some of the integrateds out there...e.g. krells 400xi.

    Now my HT is where i want it to be, but my 2ch needs to get better.

    Is there any pre-amps out there with something like a HT passthrough.

    I'd very much prefer a Mcintosh pre-amp or tube pre, but if this is not going to work, i'm open to suggestions. But i would love to stay in the Mac family if at all possible.

    Now my system consists of

    Rotel rsx 1056
    Rotel rcd 1072
    Mcintosh mc202
    PS3-mostly for blu-ray
    Oppo 981HD (soon to be for sale)
    B&W 804S
    B&W HTM4
    B&W 601s3
    B&W ASW825
    B&W, McIntosh, Rotel, PS3, OPPO, Pioneer, Cat Cables, Sound Anchors

    McIntosh C200, C46 Preamps
    by jteoh1
    I have difficulty locating local dealers with McIntosh C200 preamp available for audition. I haven't listened to either C200($7000) and C46($4250) yet. So, I’m looking for your valuable input in selecting a preamp below $7500 to match up with my MC501 mono block amps and B&W Nautilus 802 speakers....

    McIntosh Amps and PreAmps
    by NMyTree
    Hi guys.

    I'm curious about some of McIntosh's Amps and PreAmps. But I know nothing about them. I remember some time ago reading something about how they had a time period there, where they're amps amd Pre Amps where not very good, not up to McIntosh's previous standards.

    Just say no to SS or Tube preamps!?
    by JonMarsh
    Being an diehard DIY who also listens to a lot of commerically built gear, as both a benchmark and a backstop to my aural judgements, I think I've finally found the preamp solution that I can live with for two channel audio.
    It came about partly because of my lust for preamps built by a friend's...

    Halo JC 3 -- a step up from previous phono preamps in my system
    by Burke Strickland
    A while back on this forum in a discussion about the Halo JC 1 power amps & JC 2 BP preamp that I am enjoying in my 2 channel music system, Chris D predicted that the next hi-fi component I would buy is the JC 3 phono preamp. At the time I wasn’t sure that was in the cards. I recognized its...
