Tubed Pre match with a Spectron Musician IIISE?

I am currently running a Supratek Syrah with my M III SE with great results. It does not have balanced outputs however.

Look into Antique Sound Labs Flora EX-DT line stage. I am using them with a pair of NuForce 9v2se's and have fantastic results. Have read that it also matches up well with the Spectron.

Rafael: My budget is 3,000. Thanks!

Hello Steve,
Thank you:

Flora - as suggested above is good choice, IMO too
VK3iSE -slightly used
Audio Response - modded Audio Note M2 or M3
Modwright 9.0SE
Consonance R1.1
First Sound - used
LAMM L2 DeLux - used
CAT - used

of course last three are the best but you have to be patient as they are not that often appear on A-goN

All The Best
Rafael

Rafael: Thank you so much for your pre suggestions. I read your excellent review of the Spectron Musician IIISE. While I am not in a position to add a second amp, I wonder what the value is of running this amp in a balanced configuration vs. RCA connections. Using the CDP I have (Cambridge Audio 840C), I'm wondering what the trade off is.
Thanks again,
Steve
