Preamp to Integrated amp hookup

I would love to have the best, or the most I can get, from SS and tube. Could I hook up a tube preamp to my YBA Passion Intgegre, and if so, what is the way I can do it? And, if this wasn't enough questions; what tube pre would you suggest that will bring me as close to the SET sound I would like to have without going pure SET? Thanks in advance, warren :)

I think that the recomendation of a tubed power amp is a good one. You will still have the best of both worlds. Pick one that has a good resale value, so that you could dump it if need be.

Better yet, just hang on to the passion and try it with the new speakers. Who knows, it may be what you were looking for.

My feeling is that even with efficient speakers, you may still want the power of the Passion to give you dynamics you are used to. Have you had a chance to audition the new speakers with solid state gear?
