Hello all,

I’d appreciate some advice on DC-330.

My current set-up is DP500, DG48, E350, with a single digital source (Sonos). My speakers are Sonus Faber, Cremona M.

I am thinking of upgrading to A70, and use my DP500 as a preamp. But my local Accuphase dealer (I live in Paris) says he has a «*great opportunity for me*» (that always makes me a little bit suspicious given I feel there is a inbalance in technical knowledge between us, so I am not able to judge whether what he is telling me is 100% correct).

His proposal is for me to acquire a second hand DC-330, which he says will be much better as a preamp than using my DP500, especially when I acquire a second hand A-70, and since I got rid of all my CDs, I don’t need the DP500 and could sell it.
Apparently I could hope to sell the DP500 for 2,500€ and the price he is offering for the DC-330 is 3,800€. So the net cost would be rather limited, and he says I will have an immediate and material upgrade between the preamp function of the DP500 and the DC-330.

What do you guys think about this?

Thanks for any advice,

Olivier
