    Default Pre-amps

    I am looking for a cheap(er) pre-amp to get me by until I can afford a tube pre-amp. I am looking to find something under $100 shipped. I know that is asking alot, but if I have to spend much more than that, then I think I would be better off just waiting unitl I can afford that Dodd that Russ has hooked us up with. Looking on ebay I see a Nad 1020 going for $50 with about 9 hrs left, I see a HK Citation 11 going for $50 with a little over a day left and an Adcom GFP-555 going for $79 with 5 hrs left. Which one of those would be a better hold-me-over pre-amp?

    I guess the next question is, anyone got a cheap(er) pre-amp for sale?

    Thanks,
    Todd

    Yep, I figure they will all go up, but you never know when you will get lucky.

    Be patient. Save your money for a tube pre-amp. Used ones come available all the time at $250 and up.
