[QUOTE="mariusc, post: 873298, member: 486"] One can put the best pre under the sun into the chain, all in vain, if the power amplifier cannot drive the set of speakers to its full potential. For me an excellent pre is the final cherry on the cake. Impedance matching between the pre and power amp is just as important, as is the cable that connects the two. If you have good speakers, good matching power amp and good front end, an excellent pre could make the world's difference. The "pre" that made the biggest improvement in my system is actually a phone stage, ordered with line inputs and volume control, by name the three box Aesthetix IO Eclipse. [/QUOTE]
