Pre-amping a Trends Audio TA 10.1?


Has anybody hooked a Trends TA 10.1 up to a pre amp? Passive (i.e. Creek OBH-10 or 12)? Active? Newer or older? Results?
Have one coming and am curious.

In fact, would a Creek OBH-10 or 12 match well with the TA 10.1? Or maybe the JoLida passive pre-amp? Anything in the specs of either the Trends or the pre amps to indicate yes or no?
Grazie...
Currently using a TA 10.1, my tube SET is away for a bit. Using a Transcendent Sound GG pre in front. The addition of a (good) tubed pre makes the Trends, IMHO, quite good to listen to. Without the pre, the TA 10.1 isn't the same beast at all!

Yes, I use a tube preamp with 12au7 NOS tubes. It definetly improves the sound considerably. Trends was suppose to be making a tube preamp available, but I have since heard nothing of it recently. King Rex is going to have a tube pre for their stuff soon. For the price, this T amp stuff is very very good in my opinion.
