Hi,The 4i is a hybrid, albeit different than the Fat Valve tube hybrid (which
appears to be the top of his line of preamps). Basically, it seems
the tube sound is the same as the 3i, but since he uses ss for the
current amplification, it supposedly has more base extension and
more extensive highs, as well as less distortion. Actually, from
his web page, it is quite difficult trying to figure out the
differences between the 4i and the fat valve preamps.Since the integrated didn't work out, he's giving me these two used
units to try out as an even exchange...Cheers,
Jim
