Best Preamp with Tape In and Tape Out Monitoring Capability


I enjoy Reel to Reel recording thus exploring options for preamps with tape in & out  with monitoring. Would consider tube or solid state. My system is a Pass Labs XA25 amp, Pass Labs XA12 preamp ( no tape in / out) to Pure Audio Project Trio 15 Classic speakers.

I recently researched this very subject. Tape loops are hard to come by these days, but here are few that have it: Higher Pass models - XP-22 and up, BAT preamps, Accuphase (pre and integrated), Luxman.

Solid state Accuphase, tube Atma-Sphere. If you need more tape loops, check out the Sony SB-500.
