Re: Tube Amp, Preamp, or both?

We look at the audio system in a different way. The source, preamp(do we need it ?), and power amp pre-driver should be consider as one section that should be as neutral and transparent as possible. This section is where low signal is tranferred. Any deiviation or colouration will be greatly magnified by output section. The power amp and speaker combination is considered as another section since there is a lot more complicated interaction between power amp and speaker. This section is where we choose our personal preference.
