Re: any problems using a passive pre amp with a valve amp?


Funny you should ask...

I just replaced a Cary integrated with an FT Audio LW-1 passive and a Conrad-Johnson MV55. Sounds pretty fine, actually. Has bass and dynamics. It depends on how well the equipment matches; also, interconnect length should be short.

If you talk to Paul Lam (who sells the FT Audio), he'll have some insight on whether your current components will work with a passive/valve combo.
