I've used few nice preamps for about 5 years now, groove tubes brick, Old school audio preamps, and I still use an api 512c and purple biz as well as the stock preamps in my 896 and 828 interfaces.

Hey guys,

Yeah I'm kinda new... but been lurking for a little while.

Been tanning in the backyard watching the kids all day( skin cancer? who me?)Now I'm off to the beach to see Ronnie James Dio, Scorpions, and Deep Purple. The louder the better. :D

I want to add a couple to the collection...

Disregarding the fact that UA jacked you around...

What would you buy and why?

Thanks from and ex-Bostonian.
