Nothing more, and all the rest is marketing hype. > Hi, Fons! If I guess well, many so called "tube preamp" are all SS except for one tube exciter stage. I hope, "neutral" exciter position excludes the tube stage from a sound chain (I can modify all other SS parts if feel need). The thing is, I found the only micamp inside acceptable price range (two-mic, ~$200) from local dealers (ART TPS II), and this one is called as "tube" :-) Andrew _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-user
