Just wondering, this forum has the more threads than any other. I thought Speaker forum would top them all. Does this mean people covet Amps more than any other audio component? Just curious.
And also because they are swapped in and out of systems more frequently. Most folks will keep their speakers for 5 years or more. It is much easier to buy and install amps/preamps than it is speakers...
While the preamp is important, I find the amp-speaker duo the most important link which has to be right. If this is wrong nothing upstream can save it. Jallen
There is a good reason why Amps/Preamps is listed first. In addition to the fine answers mentioned above, it is the most popular category. Besides once you post under amps/preamps you are not allowed to leave, they won't let you.
Hard to argue that the preamp is the most important component, when its functions are increasingly being assumed by front end components with volume controls, to say nothing of poweramps with volume controls.
