Tube pre sspwramp vs sspre tubepwr

I think most people like to have at least some tubes in their system. I prefer all tubes. Although I have tried both ways you are asking about, if you have to have anything solid state, I have found a SS preamp with tube amps was preferreable over the reverse. Hope this does not start some sort of huge war.

Jtinn: I had good luck with this combo as well. This was older gear and the SS preamp introduced less noise to the tube amp than the tube preamp did. It would player louder and cleaner.

the 2 previous posts are correct,tubed pre with a SS amp is the way to go in my opinion.
