Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes)

Anyone come a cross a warm, rich but detailed solid state preamp that engaged you and gave you that spatiality of a good tube preamp?

I suppose im thinking of C900u or Accuphase?

Hilde well said. I suppose I just keep reading horror stories about tube preamps.

Please tell a horror story about a tube preamp.

I have owned many and know many tube preamp owners. I have yet to hear a horror story about one, or have a horror story experience.

Pintos used to blow up in the 70’s but that is no reason to avoid purchasing a modern car

OP, thanks. I'm not disagreeing with you for any reason but to help you find what you want. That may be tubes, or it may not be, but hoping to help you act on the best information available and relevant to your needs. Cheers!
