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!

After 50 years and 50 pre-amps  I have no doubt that tube pre and SS amp is best in average system .

That said , I have had two tube pres  blow up and  take  10., 000 $ of speaker with it . In todays money more like 15K .
