So do you folks who have heard all these preamps feel that the new LS28 is a sweet spot in the AR line? I may be selling my Ayre QX5/20 preamp and get the new Vandersteen mono blocks when they come out in a few months. If I do that, I need a good preamp, but will be pretty tapped out. I will look for used or demo gear of course, but when buying tube gear, I get scared off. I am looking at the Aesthetix preamp, but have a dealer who sells both and will ask him his thoughts as he's very honest. Thanks all. Appreciate this thread more than you know.
