    Wrong thread! I do appreciate the like though. I can't give much advice as my amps are not even close to the same league thus my preamp probably won't cut it. I do like my Denon PRA-1200 though.

    Note decay is only a really problem with sugary, saccharine songs* -- or the Beatles' Savoy Truffle.

    If I EVER get to the point that I start listening for how long a note lasts or "decays" I will know I have made it.
    When you really have made it, you'll be listening to the joy and emotion of music, and not just sounds.

    MC601's paired up with Klipsch speakers!!!! I'm thinking you never get to see the needles move.
