RE: How to evaluate preamps?

The more it sounds like nothing the better.

That is, unless you are looking for a specific sound.

Unfortunately everything sounds like something so you will just have to accept what is tolerable or pleasing to the ear. Many people [including me at times] claim no preamp is the best preamp, however a very good preamp will have the ability to paint a musical picture that running a Dac straight into an Amp for example just can not duplicate.
