Well, yeah, but it costs $99 so it uses opamps.
is really not a tube preamp.
I sometimes wonder how many of the golden ears could tell the difference by the sound alone.
Most likely, ALL of them.
For a while, I owned a Behringer EQ used with powered subs. Just for grins, I tried it full range with the vintage system in the garage. Even with the controls flat, the sound became bright and edgier and the soundfield shrank.
With CDPs and DACs, folks can often use attenuators instead. I made one out of parts from Radio Shack for under $20 that would have been a noticeable improvement.
