SS preamp with tube amp

Although my SS preamp "seems" to sound fabulous with my tube amp, I'm certain I'll wind up with a tube preamp eventually as I've always liked tubes, and really need to not be scorned by Purer 100% Tubeheads…I might have to simply lie about owning a tube preamp, however uncomfortable that might be (I have over 50 years of using all tube guitar amps, so there's that)...Nelson Pass can pound sand! D'Agostino, get real man...

OP - just make a short list of things to listen to.

ARC, Rogue, Ayre, Magtech, Mac, Benchmark, Pass, Audio Alchemy, Creek, Bryston...  there is no shortage of outstanding components, new or used.

add Marantz and NAD too, or Accuphase for vintage

@alanholvey..50 years in Hi End, permit me to ask -within the context of this " SS Preamp thread":
What was your experience with that very combination of SS Preamp / Valve Amp ?

mattmiller can you explain a little more about the synergy of tube amp and as pre? I have a jolida 1000p and would like to add a ss pre but want to make sure I get it right. thanks in advance

This is the thread that "guilted" me into spending relatively small bucks for what turned out to be a great tube preamp, a Schiit Freya...Sylvania "crome domes" and fabulous tone for days, whatever that means...
