Thanks for all the feedback. I would assume that if I bought the corresponding McIntosh tube pre-amp (C500) for my McIntosh MC501 SS amps, that impedance would not be an issue? (i.e., would McIntosh match their own components?)

Tube Pre-amp with SS AMP or stay all SS?
I have a pair of McIntosh MC501 SS amps which I previous used with a Cary SL98P tube pre-amp. I did very much like the combination but now thinking of upgrading to a McIntosh C500. I have heard the SS + SS combo but do not have opportunity to audition the C500 tube pre-amp + Mc501. Anyone have any opinions on this or direct experience? I am using a pair of Dynaudio Sapphires, with a McIntosh MCD500 front end.
Thanks in advance for all the feedback.
