Tube Pre for Digital Amp

Hey Voodoochile:

Good question. Personally, I've always favored tubed pre-amps for what they deliver in terms of spatiality and bloom. Coupled with a detailed, fast, and muscular amplifier like the eVos–and you get sounds that's detailed and smooth with being etched.

But: I've heard the Bel Canto PRE (which is solid state) makes a great match with the eVos.

Shamburg,

Thanks for reply... I think i will give the tub-pre
a shot can always put SS back in. If its workin for
you guys it should work for me.

Im happy already but as you know the quest is never
over!!!!

Good question, Voodoochile. However, one reason I like the SF is that it is not tube-y. It is tight, clean and honest. It may not be perfect (what is?) but it does not compromise the eVo.

KR4.. Thanks.

Thanks to all for your input; I have auditioned several high quality tube pre's, and as mentioned above, the added dynamics to a fast, agile amp is really the best of both worlds, in my opinion. I think it is well worth the effort, and further, i think that tube preæs might actually work best with digital amps. Dan
