Re: if detail is lost upstream, no way will you make it up downstream!

In fact the preamp is pretty important! It has to handle the incoming signals (line, phono), control volume, provide missing gain (sometimes) and control the interconnect cable.

In fact you can get away with murder if the front end signal is clean enough. Just try a cheap microphone with a great recorder as opposed to a great microphone into a cheap recorder and you will see what I mean. The front end signal has to be intact!
