Question about Tube Pre-amp
Read a lot about the topic "tube pre-amp with ss amp" and I am a little interested in it.
I started with HT system and now I am 50/50 in HT and music. I never heard a tube sound. I use Lexicon DC2 Pre-pro and Bryston 3B amp to drive Studio 40. I know tubes sound more smooth, warm and sweet...good for music. I am just wondering if I intruduce a tube pre-amp like Audio Research LS3 to work with Bryston SS amp, how the result would be and how much inprovement I could get over DC2's 2 channel performance. How much those" smooth, sweet.." would I get?
Thanks
