In Reply to: RE: Rotel RB-1092 and tube preamp posted by xtsili@grnet.gr on September 12, 2014 at 01:18:44
I use a Quicksilver linestage with my Rotel rb-1050 and it sounds good. However, the Quicksilver has too much gain for the amp. Fortunately, my Rotel has volume controls, which enable me to tailor the gain of the preamp to better match the amp. I don't know if your Rotel has volume controls, so you may want to limit your options to those preamps that you can try before you buy.

Yeap this is what I feel what the problem might be with a tube preamp: much of unnecessary gain. Mine doesn't have volume controls, Jriver has though (I use Jriver's engine to stream Spotify). Maybe I could lower Jriver's volume so that compensate for the excessive gain. Jriver uses very robust algorithms to handle digital volume.

It might work. Good luck.
