| Solid State Preamp to replace tube unit The answer is simple; Backert labs. I’ve owned both SS and tube preamps and never anything remotely like my Backert pre. The two 12AU7 tubes will last a lifetime. The pristine nature of the sound will blow your mind. I own the Rhythmn and it never... | |

| Looking at these specific preamps give me your opinions Backert Labs, it’s been the preamp of my dreams! The love affair continues. It’s quiet, detailed and though neutral, there is real magic in how it has made my 300B’s sound with O96’s. You can’t beat it! | |
| Need new pre amp Backert Labs. Two balanced ins and one out. Completely neutral but so so accurate! They use (2) 12AU 7’s! | |
| Preamp suggestions for Atma-Sphere Class D Monoblocks +1 Backert Rhumba Extreme or Rhythm. All of the Backert preamps are sensational. The sound is neutral but absolutely magical.

| Terry DeWick has passed I hadn’t heard of him until now. What stands out in this discussion is the very positive impact he had on others. We are in short supply of upstanding people of character and skill. My sincere condolences to all of those who knew him. | |

| McIntosh MC20 - 1960's - No Left Channel I highly recommend Audio Classics, they have several excellent techs and their work is impeccable! | |
| Is tube sound vs solid state easier to distinguish using headphones? When I listen with my Pass Labs XA 30.8 in my system and then switch to my Wyetech Labs 300 B mono blocks, the sound becomes immediately more life like, warmer and engaging. It’s a revelation every single time. | |
