are there preamps using a 211 tube

Preamp gain ???
Hi BobrockI like Swampwalker's idea. I don't if your integrated has XLR Outputs and inputs but this is the line level attentnuator I use. The possible problem is that it lowers gains in increments of 10db. They are about $40 each but are well buil... 
Breaking in Integrated amp with DAC
I can't find the thread in the archives but I was told by other members before that a signal must be going through the DAC for break-in to occur. Normally what I do if the DAC has a USB input I will connect my laptop to it play various music and b... 
FREIGHT SHIPPER
Try FreightQuote dot com. Ask for Bob Bixler. If Bob can't help you I'm sure someone there can. He helped me years ago to get a quote for a pair of KEF 105/3s to be shipped to me from Florida to the NY area. 
great headphone amplification in vintage gear?
For me the headphone section of an Accuphase C200 did very well in powering a set of Sony MDR V6 and BeyerDynamic DT48 25 Ohm headphones for me. 
Listening Fatigue & Speakers in Small Room
I think the 6h23 type tube may be the cause of the listener fatigue. I had a budget tube preamp where it incorporated 4 rocket logo 6h23P preamp tubes and 4 6922 preamp tubes and I swear no matter the 6922 tubes I put there was too much emphasis o...

tube vs SS preamp
Hi again Al2214 Another you can do is keep your existing preamp and add a tube source to your system. I've added a Pro-Ject Tube Box 2 phono preamp and a Eastern Electric Minimax DAC to the system with the Jolida 502P and it has been a positive ex...
