@lpretiring There was so much back and forth today, that I overlooked saying: Congratulations on ordering the Electrons.
If you are having second thoughts about how they might work for you vs the Double Impacts, perhaps Eric can swap out your order?
I cannot see how you can go wrong with the Triode 2A3 amp. Triode is well regarded, not only in this thread, but to reaches far far beyond.
And you may be surprised at how well your current preamp functions in the chain.
Many of us have been moving new equipment in to optimize our listening experiences and preferences since purchasing the Double Impacts. If a component isn't a good fit, it is far from the end of the world. In fact, I'd say that the beautiful part of the journey is just beginning for you!
I'd wait until you've had some time with the Electrons and then make a much more informed choice.
