Amp/Preamp Asylum Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here. |

I own a counterpoint SA-1000 hybrid preamp. I know that hybrid means the use of tubes and transistors but how does this effect the sound? Is this type of circuit better than all tube or all SS? The designer must have found some benefit to this design. Thanks for all replies....
