Home Amp/Preamp Asylum

Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

RE: I could be wrong but...

So if the iFi iTube2 is doing exactly what it was designed to do, that is, provide a good buffer stage (1M Ohm input impedance/150 Ohm output impedance) while also offering a bit of tube euphonics, why did you infer from your original reply that this was just another "cheap" tube buffer taking advantage of a "ridiculous buffer craze"?

Otherwise, you seem to be struggling as to what you are trying to say about my original post. From what you've posted so far I get the impression that you don't like buffer stages, and you especially don't like buffer stages that promote tube euphonics. And I'm not quite sure why you used the 300B power tube as an example as to why you think tube buffers are bunk.

Look, I obviously don't have the understanding of tube technology that you seem to have so if you can add something constructive, I'm all ears.
