Tube vs Solid state for Preamp

Like opinions on this match up

Running audible illusions L3 preamp. into (jumpers removerd) Krell 350 mcx in a Biamped arrangement.

Would going solid state be an upgrade in Lowend control of the krell

What is the output impedance of your current tube preamp? This can have an effect on bass performance. I have a tube preamp with single ended outputs with a krell ksa 300s amp, and have great bass performance.

AI preamps (L3, M3) are capable of incredible bass performance...absolutely no need to jump to SS. I've owned an M3B for 7 years, btw.
