Joule Electra LAP 150, Noisy?


I'm considering a LAP 150, My speakers are Lamhorn 1.8 with a AES 106 db driver and Yamamoto 06-3. Here in San Francisco there seems to be a great deal of RFI which is my main concern and tube rush.

Thanks

I tried a Music First classic, all silver. In my system it sounded thin, dry and bad. Not sure why, MF thought it was the silver, my friend who brought it over said it sounded great in all 4 systems he has had it in. I'm also trying to have less boxes and less cords, Etc. That's why the all in one approach. Open to other ideas. BTW, my cabling is Synergistic which has proven to be great in my room.

I have Joule-Electra preamp and I am immensely happy with its performance. The best I ever owned or auditioned. Its much more silent then my previous transistor preamp, Capri by Jeff Rowland. My speakers are 92 dB.

I agree with Pubul57 that only passive unit can compete with J-E in that regard (but not in PERFORMANCE!!!!).

I've owned three versions of LA 100, LA 150, LA 150 mk II & LA -300 and they have all been dead quiet. Great pre's.

Crubio, I don't think you are going to many arguments that the Joule preamps are not great in a very, very musical way.
