SS preamp with tube amp

I toying with the idea of using my Esoteric integrated as a preamp to pair up with a tube amp. I'm wondering if I will get the "tube sound" with this set up.

It is powering Magnepan MG1 Improved speakers at 24 watts per channel and still will get very load. I didn't even think it would power the maggies so I was very surprised that it sounded so good and would drive me out of the room when turned up. Greg
