Tubes Asylum Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ |

I am looking at several custom tube line preamps. Can someone tell me (and/or direct me to a source that will help me to understand) the comparative strengths and weaknesses of these two designs; what to look out for; and if it is possible to make any sonic generalities about the two.One design is a cathode follower that uses 2 12SN7GT or 6SN7GT tubes in the gain stage. The other is a mu follower that also uses 2 12SN7 tubes, plus 2 27GB5 tubes in triode mode as the current source(s) - it's balanced - plus a rectifier tube.
I know asking a question like this is like asking to know what sex feels like. Please try anyway. We all have to start somewhere.
Thank you.
