Tube sound with no tubes


Is there such a pre-amp out there that does this?I love the tube sound but they are hassle when a tubes fail.I have a pair of Pass X-600 amps that need a preamp.What pre-amp would be my best choice to give me a nice warm holographic sound??

I would tend to agree with Bob (Ontjesr). It would seem that if there was one out there that could replicate the sound of tubes, we all would ditch our tube preamps. I mean no one really likes replacing tubes, we do it because it sounds better than SS.

If you are stuck on SS though, the darTZeel NHB-18NS would probably come as close as you can get to tube sound from silicon chips. Of course with a list price of $23,250 I would hope so.
