Dealers in my area are not offering any discounts on the 1098. In fact they were playing the, we can't get enough in game and you should pre order.
So I ventured to the dark side and purchased a B&K Ref 50 from an authorized dealer with warranty for $2000. I don't know if I made the right decision, but the $3K was just too much and I thought the B&K would be better than the 1066 for $1500. The B&K dealer also offered me a money back guarantee. Should I send it back and wait for deals on 1098s? I find it so hard to demo preamps at stores since the have them connnected to all kinds of gear and speakers I don't have.
At least I've still got my Rotel amp.
P.S. I know this is O/T, but has anyone tried ACI Panorama speakers. I'm considering buying them sight unseen or ear unheard I should say.
