I quite like my PS Audio M1200 mono amps and preferred them to my PSA BHK250. It synergistically plays well with my DeHavilland UltraVerve and ModWright LS36.5 preamps. It also sounded great with the departed PS Audio BHK preamp. Sounds excellent with the solid state Luxman M700 as well. The ability to change the M1200's input tube helps fine tune the pairing with each preamp. Plus, as I get older, I really appreciate only having to lift amps weighing 30 lbs. instead of 75 lbs.!
Tube Pre/ Class D Amp - Who has done it?
Open forum for those who have actually tried this. Really curious to know who has been happy, or maybe unhappy, with a tube preamp driving a Class D amplifier?
Of course, tube pre with a solid state amp is a classic pairing for hard to drive speakers, especially ESL's. This is a little different. I'm really curious to know what pres and Class D amps have had great synergy.
