I'm currently looking for something to place between my iPod Classic and my home stereo receiver to help warm up the sound, ideally giving it a bit of that ol' tube magic.
My receiver is a Harmon Kardon 3390 that has preamp-out/main-amp-in jacks (which is where the following units would get connected, I think?)
I've been looking at Firestone Audio's Tube Head preamplifier
and Yaqin's Tube Buffer.
I've emailed Firestone and they said the Tube Head is perfect for my desired application, the guy even said that's exactly how he's got his hooked up. I haven't contacted Yaqin.
Anyone have experience with either of these units that could help share some of the pros and/or cons of each one?
Or can anyone comment on the pros and cons of the tech-side/methodology of each approach? Thanks!
