Best Pre under 400 (used)

Forums

I was wondering what you all think are the best Preamps under 400$ (Ebay used). I was looking at these
Audio Experiance Symphonies
Cary AE-3
(Some of the) Meixcing Ming Da (Products) (If I can Afford)
Dared SL-2000A
Audio note M-Zero
Soundstage Vacuum (One or Two) class a tube preamp
Promethius TVC

Musical Tastes - Mainly Jazz /Rock. (Not alot of output required. Would be nice) (Im also thinking about BI amping, so 2 outputs would be nice)

Please respond with suggestions or other pre's.

Repairs anyone?

Hello everyone.

My uncle was an audiophile from way back. Mostly reel to reel stuff. In his arsenal of equipment he had a Pheobe Servo Loop Preamp with a matching Son Of Ampzilla. Both by The Great American Audio Company.

The Preamp is the broken one. The balance is screwy. It needs to be repaired. It would be great to hear these 2 together. I have never heard them but would love to.

So, does anyone know of any where that would repair something like this? My aunt is willing to send it off if need be.

Not that I had any idea what Sigur Ros' "Hoppipolla" was about (actually, I never know what any Sigur Ros song is about), but this video wouldn't have even made the top 20 possibilities.

Jacques Brel Is Not Alive or Well

Jacques Brel Is Not Alive or Well

But he's still amazing, as this subdued (for him) performance of "Le Moribond" proves amply. Leave it to Brel to put this much life into a song about dying. Forget "Seasons of the Sun," this was the original and still the greatest.
