The future of preamps

Knghifi,
Thanks for your reply. I recalled you and Grannyring have tried the Light speed in the past.

Audiolabyrinth,
If you get an opportunity to hear the Atma-Sphere MP-1 I think you'll be highly impressed, it's very good sounding.
Charles,

@ Jmcgrogan2, Hi, I have been to the Atmasphere site and looked at the m-1 two box preamp, It does not reveal the tube compliment or how many tubes that I could see, nor does the site tell me if the tubes are in a buffer stage or the out-put stage, maybe Ralph or Almarg could help with this set of questions?

@ charles1dad, Thanks, listening to the m-1 is #1 on my priority list of auditions of preamps, will you elaborate on the m-1's sound, please?, thankyou.

@ jmcgrogan2, Hi, opps, I see the tube compliment now, still need the other questions answered, wow!, thats alot of tubes!, 18 tubes!, I do not believe I have seen this many in a preamp before, hey, is this the tube 6sn7's you and pops rave about, of being the big sound of tubes? and, are the 12at7 tubes similair to the 12au7 and 12ax7 tubes that I do like?,thanks john.
