I reckon that a tube amp can tone down the brightness of a system. But, sometimes it can sound too warm to some ppl that eventually the timing can be slowed down. This may not be suitable to some music genre like rock & pop songs.
IMO, if your music preference is towards modern type then tube might not be suitable. But then again, others have pair it with a good power amp to great effect. |

QUOTE(htkaki @ Jan 14 2011, 10:58 PM) I am looking for a good preamp too. This is the only missing link now. Once I found one, then will order a good pair of XLR cables BTW, you have to be choosy in the pre-amp that comes with XLR connectivity. Am I right to say both XLR & Din cables are much better than most expensive RCA cables? |

QUOTE(car_o_scope @ Jan 14 2011, 11:55 PM) Mostly yeah.. Bro, care to share what do they mean by XLR "Balance Output"? Does it mean the sound to Left & Right is more balanced? Many pre-amps come with Balanced XLR inputs and outputs. Or should I say, when you reach certain level, you will find all the gears that you are hunting have the Balanced XLR. DIN is mainly for Naims. But I think now they also use RCA but not XLR. Old Naims have the DIN only.
