As I mentioned earlier, the preamp is REALLY important. the best results

are
with a preamp that has a good stepup transformer, especially with quiet
sources.


I basically agree, but it's interesting that AEA's preamp, designed
specifically for ribbons, is transformerless.

Peace,
Paul



What really quiet sources have you tried it on?

Ty
