Home Amp/Preamp Asylum

Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

I thought I was a tube guy

but now I'm not so sure.

I think I prefer my Marsh P200B feeding a Marsh A400S vs the AR LS17 feeding a AES SixPac. I find the SS gear offers a better soundstage with much better depth than the tubed rig. Guessing it might be a synergy thing.

I also like it when I can just sit down and listen whenever I want vs waiting for the tubes to warm up.

I think the true test for me is that I couldn't stay out of my music room with the SS gear whereas with the tubes I hardly even want to listen. Weird because I was always the opposite before.
