Top ten tube preamps

Samuellaudio- sorry for hijacking your thread.
Ait-

I'm still working out the safety systems to ensure no electrocutions or fires result.

Ah, what's the fun in that? There's a reason they call it "the bleeding edge" ;-)

Manley Neo-Classic 300B preamp

Without a doubt ,wyetech ruby STD in a sound class all by itself , speaking from a guy that has an MBL preamp

I don't know about top ten, but, I have heard good sound from systems using the following:

Emotive Audio Epifania (I own one of these)

Aldo preamp (custom built preamp from a Western Electric rebuilder in Italy-transform inputs and outputs. I also own one of these)

Veloce (I heard a nice system at a show using this preamp)

Audionote (uk) M-10 linestage and phono preamp (you need an extra room to house these monsters with their multiple power supplies)

Audionote (Kondo) M-10 linestage (I auditioned Stax Omega II headphones on a system with this linestage and bought the phones. They have NEVER sounded as good as when played through the Kondo).

Hi Larryi,

I've just sent you a PM re: your Aldo amps.

Thanks!
