Solid State preamp with Tube Amp?
I moved from McIntosh MC2301 mono tube amps and a C-1100 tube Pre to a SS Bricasti DAC/PRE and Bricasti SS Mono Amps. For me, the decrease in noise and increase in accuracy has taken Strads to the best I have ever heard them.
Having said that, it could be my room(s), my ears/hearing, etc.
