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.

I have had my Canor Hyperion P1 Pre paired with most of the AGD Monos and also a VAC Master paired with AGD Duets specifically driving some Cantons. I have also used NAD and Primare Class Ds with the Hyperion.  All of the combos were excellent.  

Like any preamp, amp combination you need to look at the impedance, gain and voltage to make sure the equipment is matched well.  If you have a good match, it will sound great assuming that sound profile meets your needs.
