Minimax Preamp vs........the world?

By the way why not Odysseys very own new Tube pre the candela they came out with in the last 18 months? I believe its in the same price range as well....?

Be very careful with the Eastern electric, it has an output impedance that is very high for your 10 k ohm amp.. I owned the stratos by the way, in about 3 variations of it.. The EE has a 1.5 k out, you will probably get a little more anylitical and further pushed back sound.. I would go for very low output tube pres in my honest opinion like conrad johnson or similar,,, they have an output impedance of like 50 ohm.. very low and can pretty much drive anything, and will give you a more romantic sound if thats what you are looking for. If anything I would call EE and see what they think about it driving those amps, or at least see that you can return it if your not happy with the full frequency response.
I don't know the specs on the metis so I would call and speak with them as well on their feelings of this match.
Good luck

To be honest not sure where you found the specs on EE's site, these are the ones I see, not 700 ohm output impedance.. And Rogue does not list the output impedance at all so I would call them.. Good Luck
