You two are a bad influence 😉.
Any thoughts about a 300b preamp? I see bottlehead is running a special on theirs but otherwise I'd probably just get one of Dennis' pre. Reason why I'm asking is because it seems I could get some of the benefit you all are taking about by trying a different first stage tube in my current amp, which is the same output tube that he also uses on the pre. It seems by running the signal through essentially twice the same tube (pre and power amps) that all id be doing, besides adding gain of course, is adding more of the same coloration, even if it is neutral tube. Maybe I'm way off here?
