As you have Klipsch, I'd recommend keep your P5 and try swapping out your A21 with a tube amp. I tried tube pre/ss amp a long time ago (Audible Illusions+Exposure) and really liked it, but practical considerations in integrating HT with my stereo setup kept me with SS pre/pro. I recently moved to Rogue amplification, and have never looked back. Audition a tube amp and see how you like the sound.
Tube Preamp with Solid State Amp?
Greetings!
I’ve seen some folks using Tube Preamps with Solid State Am ps. I’m thinking of doing that with my system as part of an incremental change. I currently have a Parasound P5 preamp with a Parasound A21 driving Klipsch Cornwall 4’s. Will a decent / good Tube Preamp really make a difference in my sound? I enjoy what I have now but really want to experience Tubes in my system. Thanks!
