ARC SP6 or 9; Audible Illusions M3A;Couterpoint 5


Which of these preamps would provide the best match with VPI JMW, ARC d-75, and VANDERSTEEN 2CE'S? Any other suggestions welcome. What about the EAR/Yoshino? Anyway I need suggestions in this price range. Any help appreciated.

I owned an SP-6B, one of the more highly acclaimed of the
SP-6 series. I thought it was OK, but not spectacular. The
background noise level was too high, the bass ill-defined
and the highs rolled off. For its day it was excellent, but
many more current preamps are its better.
