Preamps-Tube


I've been searching for a preamp to add to my Thiel & Pass Lab system to " attenuate digital glare" in the 2-7k hz range

I've been looking at the CJ & Rhuma preamps.

Recently, I have read that the BEST preamps all use tube rectifiers and THEY are the ones that give the good, lush high frequencies.

opinions?

I haven't had the pleasure of hearing either of Backert Labs new preamps but I am  familiar with the Backert's and what they look for in sound.  If you are looking for something to ameliorate upper midrange prominence I would look to cj.  The Backerts have always striven for a dynamic, tonally neutral sound.  Not saying there gear would be in anyway bright, just neutral through the audio frequency range.
