You can really use any tube preamp with the MC30's. Historically correct may not be valid here. Maybe "time line" correct? The MC30's were made for a while so the choice of Mac Preamps may have been C108,C-8,C8S,C20,C11,C22. Then who's to say you have to use a Mac preamp? Everyone that purchased MC30's new did not have a Mac Preamp.
C8's would be OK but they take their B+ supply from the MC30 unless you get the separate supplies for them. That sort of drags the B+ on the MC30's down. There was a C-8S that had a dual volume pot to convert to stereo. Made it easier to ajust volume with one knob rather than two. The Fisher 400C would be fine and in my opinion be better than C8's. Especially the 400CX.Dave
