Vladmir is a purist and believes they add unwanted noise/distortion.

I guess I've gotta get comfortable getting up off the couch to adjust those knobs.

Having lived with no remote for so long and really hating it, I just refuse to live without one when I purchase my next pre.
So unless Vladmir comes out with something soon, my money is going for a ARC REF 5.

I have no experience with the Mac & Lamm hybrid combo but have experienced the BAT + Lamm combo. This is a very good combo as well and the remote is present with the BAT pre-amp. So good that I'm now looking into the BAT VK32 SE pre-amp to go with the Lamm M2.2. Please look into this= highly musical combo. I have no experience with the AR Ref 5 + Lamm but have heard many times an all ARC combo even the anniversary models. Nice but not my cup of tea. YMMV. Good luck. |

Never missed the lack of remote with any preamp. Listening to vinyl? You're getting up anyways. Listening to CD? Get a CDP with variable volume control and have your remote. Preferably a tube CDP.
Both my tube CDPs have a remote, variable output as well as digital inputs for other sources, also variable volume control. Last edited by PHC1; 09-07-2011 at 07:44 PM. |

With Or Without A PreAmp?
What makes you say that? Have you any experience with & without? I know it's a mixed bag - some prefer with & some without. WHat are your experiences?

I am, obviously, a huge fan of my BAT VK-52 SE preamp.
