New to Decware looking for phono pre amp.
07/28/14 at 01:05:38
 
Just found Decware.com and seeing I'm looking to upgrade my phono pre amp the ZP3 is high on my list, the Decware amps in general look fantastic. I use a Music Reference Rm10 for my front speakers, Focal 836w. My choices are a Pro Ject  tube box DS. Or Music reference c4+. Or of course the ZP3. Current TT is Pro Ject carbon with a Sumiko blue pt #2 my current phono amp is a Bellari vp130. Anybody have experience with these other phono pre amps?  Looking to call Decware tomorrow. Thanks guys for any input you my have.

If the Tube box DS is just the Tube box S with an big dial on it for different cart settings then it`s not going to get anywhere near the ZP3. I still have my old Tube box S. Reminds me of another day and thats all, so I wont rubbish it, it did a job. The ZP3 is a reality check.

I'm not going to be a lot of help since I haven't used the phono stages you mentioned... however, I have listened to other well regarded phono stages and I can tell you, the ZP3 is magical.
