Just ordered my Supratek Chenin Preamp

Congratulations! While the wait can seem like forever, once it arrives, it all will have been worth it. Do yourself a favor once it arrives: don't rush into rolling the tubes in it. Mick builds them and ships them with tubes that really do sound great with the unit. Wait until you have a couple of hundred hours on it before swapping them out. I have swapped a few in and out and have always gone back to the set it came with, with the exception of a pair of grey glass 6SN7s that I do really like the sounds of over the stock tubes.

Thanks. I have no plans to roll the tubes for quite a while. This is my first piece of tube equipment ever - unless you count my parents' old console stereo from the '60s. I think I'll enjoy the tube sound for a while before I experiment. By the way, just for reference, what manufacturer were the grey glass 6SN7s you liked?

Your first tube equp EVER, and you buy a Supratek. WHY? I don't get it. How much did you pay, tell me that.
Also there is a 5 yr running Supratek topic going on, I suggest you post there.

What a pleasant chap you are!

How long did he tell you it would take to receive it? What are the components you're going to match it with? Have fun!
