Hi Folks,

l would like anyones opinions on:

1. ICON AUDIO PASSIVE PRE with remote.
Seems a simple, convenient unit at a reasonable cost.

2. DENSEN B200+ PREAMP
Just in my budget. Any good?!

3. PRIMARE PRE32
I have the CD32 and love it.

I am feeding a Sanders Magtech power amp.
My existing pre is a Restek Consens and its very good, but l can feel the itch to change.
My speeks are Focal Kanta 2.

Thank you.
Paul

the rrp on your pre is 4k and the icon is about 10 times less than that. what makes you think it would be better ?

Just reading a review of the kanta2 in Jan 2019 edition of hi fi world. They used with icon audio 30se integ and Macintosh amps. You might like to read review

Do you mean it's a tenth of the price?
