Any good reasons to use transistor phono stage and line level preamp instead of tube ?


Besides lower noise and no need to hunt for particular NOS tubes.

Nope.

Transistors do not sound like tubes.  You can get tubes to be very quiet.  You can get tubes to produce sound similar to solid state in impact, dynamics, clarity, imaging, and more precise, etc.

"Anything a tube can do, a transistor can do the same thing - and never wear out!"

Not true, transistors cannot reproduce dimension of soundstage like a tube can.  You cannot get a 3D image from transistors.

Happy Listening.
