Hey there fellow audio nerds. I've been looking at a few pre-amps to complete the musics system. The problem is I have yet to listen to them side by side since they are all in different system at different dealers.

Has anyone here listen to any two or all three in the same system? If you have, which one did you like best?

I know that the Bryston is GOOD! I have had it on demo in my system and it is clean, really brings out the soundstage and has sensational dynamics. This is the last of its kind and I can get it for just less than $2000 CDN inlcuding taxes with the phono stage.

The Rotel is nice also, neutral sounding and had good dynamics. It was demonstrated with Rotel CD and Amp driving a pair of B&W 805s. The system was quite impressive and it played very loud before starting to get harsh. I was quoted $1400 CDN before the tax.

The characteristic of the Moon gear that completely shocked me was the build quality. The P3 is anchored together really well and has interesting design lines. Sonically, it is extremely transparent and very, very smooth. It was in a system with the Musical Fidelity 308 CD and Amp with Monitor Audio GR20. This system raised a brow or two of people that walked into the store. The only problem is that it will run about $2400.
