Hello everyone, I ask you for one piece of advice.

I need a mic preamp for RODE NTK. I would like to improve sound and reduce noise.

Does anyone know which mic preamp would work out well?

In view of finances, I am currently limited to a maximum of about $450 / 300 eur.

I have a sound card M Audio Firewire 410.

do i buy a SE Z5600a or a RODE NTK? I'm not sure as they are priced about the same and both sound really nice. Im thinking more towards the SE Z5600a as it also includes a nice shockmount where the RODE is optional. i plan to use mainly on vocals but probably a few other acoustic stuff now and again.

I just got this setup the other day mainly to record french horn in a mix and alone for practicing.

I guess I just assumed I would plug it in and there would be a slider on the mixer that I could control the gain with and if it was too hot I would turn it down until it is just right.

I have been using my Mackie VLZ mixer for a few years and would like to get a preamp that is a step up from that...My price range is ~500. There are many mic preamps in this range (grace 101, Summit 2BA-221, "The Brick", RNP etc.) and some of them are tube...Since my main vocal mic is a RODE NTK should I avoid a tube pre and go with something cleaner to bring out the NTK sound?
