...And then throw a TRANSCENDENT GROUNDED GRID preamp (GGP) in front of it.This is the least 'classic tube' sounding preamp I've heard, but still inserts that tube magic relating to imaging, flow and 'reach-out-and-touch-it' palpability.
Best of all - if you're a tinkerer - you can easily keep upgrading every part of the GGP to extract even greater performance from it!
With new knobs and perhaps a blue LED, the GGP looks pretty sweet for a kitset too!
NB: If your power amp or speakers ain't up to the task, the GGP ain't going to fix it...
