tube preamp with SS amp

picked-up a used Parasound SS 2125 amp to use 4 months of year instead of Quicksilver tube monos... because of heat here in AZ 110-115 in summer even with central air, can't get below 80 in listening room... any
thoughts on using Quicksilver tube LS preamp with SS amp

Thanks

There is no problem . The Quicksilver has a low output
impedance(100 ohms) and should be fine with any solid state
amp.

My tube Jolida Fusion (600 ohm output) mates well with my BEL amp (22K ohm input). I prefer the tube pre/SS power amp combination.

Yep, I am listening to the Met right now on my Quicksilver pre (6922 version) paired with a SS amp, and it kicks butt.
