Speakers? I owned the SLP98P hot rod version from Upscale and liked it a lot with my SS Plinius amps and Dynaudio Speakers. 6SN7 based tube preamps have a lot of soul in my experience and are often a welcome addition to a SS system. Be careful turn thing off and on in the right order, though, or you may not like what happens to your gear. A nice inexpensive-ish option are the AES preamps. I wound the DJH signature for some time and really enjoyed it with some '50's Sylvania 6SN7w's and a Valvo rectifier.
