Is Solid State Preamp and Tube Amp A Good Combo?


I happened to come across a pair of tube Rogue Magnum 120 mono amps which I would like to try out. I don't have a preamp to specially match it with but for now I have McCormack TLC-1 solid state preamp.

Would I get good results with this combination? Is this also called hybrid? I thought a hybrid setup is a tube preamp a solid state power amp.

I do not have any experience with tubes but am willing to try out.

I cannot thank you all enough for all the feedback you have given so far. I just went ahead and paid for them. This would be an interesting quest for me. If they do not work for me, there is always the Audiogon market or might also give tube preamps a try. Hope to provide an update when the amps arrive.
