Im not calling it a day, im going to get a tube pre amp.
MP-301 MK3. is out from music paradise, heard some reviews and its only 6.5 watts and very bass thin from the review.
Need help picking my first tube amp
Hey guys i want to get into tubes, i have heard wayyyyyyy to much and am dying to try a tube amp. I have a budget of 650 us dollars, not sure if i want a pre amp, or full tube amp. Im thinking pre amp cause i would really like it to drive headphones and then run it into a amp and then to speakers.
Been reading alot about Chineese tube amps and not sure what to think. I have my eye on Xduoo TA-26 gets rave reviews has anybody used it ? anyways looking for any input i can get, thanks.
Michael

@audiomike33 There is a VTL TL 2.5 advertised by High Performance Stereo for $1,200. Make them an offer. https://www.highperformancestereo.com/preamplifiers-surround/vtl-tl2-5.html And one Cary slp 03 advertised for $990 in the US Audio Mart.

@holmz I would stay away from AI units. They drive their tubes very hard and it will reduce lifetime of the tubes. Not sure if you have experienced this. |
