tube amp / ss preamp configuration?


I think the traditional set up is SS Amp with tube preamp. Why not the other way around?
Thanks.

I think guys just get into SS for the power and then wish they had a bigger sound stage and more life like presentation. That is when they start looking for a tube preamp to give some of that "tube magic."

On the other side if you have a tube amp and come to enjoy it then it would be a little crazy to go with a SS amp and run the nice clean music through all those pre printed circuit boards.
