Need help picking my first tube amp


Hey guys i want to get into tubes, i have heard wayyyyyyy to much and am dying to try a tube amp.  I have a budget of 650 us dollars, not sure if i want a pre amp, or full tube amp.   Im thinking pre amp cause i would really like it to drive headphones and then run it into a amp and then to speakers.

Been reading alot about Chineese tube amps and not sure what to think.  I have my eye on Xduoo TA-26 gets rave reviews has anybody used it ?  anyways looking for any input i can get, thanks.

- Hi audiomike , I see you decided to pick up a Little Dot Mk II and a vintage Technics Receiver congratulations - but then I also saw you are having shipping and contact issues . . . .  Unfortunately I am not familiar with the company, sorry. 

 - Hopefully things will work out , I've been burned buying several pieces of audio equipment - luckily it doesn't happen too often , but it's a real bummer if it does.

-------

-  I have a Question , Do you know if there a way to send personal messages on this forum??  

 

- I read though threads here often but I've never gotten involved in the discussions.

 - ( I looked for the answer but don’t see how to do it ).

 

---  The reason I was asking about sending a personal message was that I wanted to share my recent amplifier find with you but it is kind of personal........  and there is also another reason for not just posting it as well - lol )

 

- I also wanted to ask you something about your setup too.

 

Thank you,

Best regards, Dean
