Dagostino hd momentum, is lack of rubes a problem?


Kinda disappointing that dagostino doesnt do tubes. Is lack of tubes in their hd momentum preamp cause for concern when paired with a ss amp?

yes, rubes in title sb tubes.  Cant edit descriptions. So rubes appears.

Love analogy.  I am not tu smart, pictures make it easy.

so driving uphill toward higher impedance is good. Speakers are on hilltop and source is at bottom of hill

like a high altitude with lower air resistance, ie. why jets fly high in air. Signal path gets alot easier thru all the circuitry and cabling as it flows toward speakers.

By jove, me thinks he’s got it👍

Imagine 4 lanes of traffic now going into 40 lanes, yahoo time to put the foot down!!

I’ve heard the d’Agostino different times with the Sonus Faber speakers : not my stuff: there’s no emotion in the music , very “flat’. ( sorry for the lovers…) detail  and placement are okay, but very expansive for what it is : much beter are Ear Yoshino , VAC , Wavac. , …here you can find emotion : you are “one”  with the music ( you experience ). You don’t have that with d’Agostino…
Try the Great coda SS preamp you can get it for under $6 k check out.          Audio Archon.
it will. not disappoint  stereo times and others have labeled it world class .
my brother owns several great tube amps 
and as far as resolution and very natural tonal balance I first thought 
itwas a tube preamp ,that’s where fet ,and mosfets come in 
even though they are solid state devises they have vacuum tube characteristics .
