swemoll Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Hey, I think it's time to go ahead and get me a Rega Brio-R, which would no longer give me a reason to have my Cambridge Audio 640p. I have enjoyed it, but it's time to move on. I think it would be an awesome phono pre for a ton of the users here on VC, or provide certain users the ability to jump into MC cartridges. It's in absolutely stellar condition, and I'll make sure it's packed correctly (plus I'll cover shipping). I'd like to sell it for $150, but I'll also listen to legitimate offers. Let's upgrade some sound! Edit: Also, pictures available upon request. Does not come with box, but I believe I have the manual around somewhere. And for those curious about the difference between this and the new version (650p?), the only difference is that the new one has an on/off switch. Which, considering you should leave the phono pre on all the time if it's solid state, that's dumb. So save a few bucks and get the 640p!

ajxd Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I'd hold on to it and compare to the Rega pre first... You never know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swemoll Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 I've done the A/B and I prefer the Rega. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajxd Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Oh you already have the Rega? The way you posted I thought you meant it was soon to be purchased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajxd Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Also for interested parties- this is a good price. They mainly sell $150+ without free shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluedeni Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I love the rega brio-r. But that is a good price for the Cambridge. Someone should snatch it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swemoll Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 Oh you already have the Rega? The way you posted I thought you meant it was soon to be purchased.Don't own it already, but I have borrowed one for a weekend to do some A/B and listening tests. Listened to a lot of vinyl that weekend. The amp is a great improvement as well. Edit: thanks for the backing on the price. I think it's legit too.

828321 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I use a Rega P3 turntable with the Cambridge Audio pre-amp. Functionality and sound is wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
