I'm thinking of trying out a preamp/power amp setup for a change...
I'm going to be buying a Fryette 2-90-2 power amp, and can't find a pre amp I'm happy with really, any suggestions?
I'm not an effects guy, so pedals are for sure out, as are effects processors such as the Fractal Audio or the Prophesy II, any Digitech effects thing or Boss gt pro...
I don't want solid state or digital, or a combination of tube or SS or digital.
So far, the ones I'm considering are -
Soldano sp77 (even though the pink kind of sucks..)
Marshall 9001 or JMP1(?)
Tech 21 Sansamp 1.1.
I don't want effects processors or amp modelers because I know it just isn't the real thing no matter how close the sound gets.. I do like the sounds of the Fractal Audio, but I just want a straight forward tube preamp that will sound killer with the Fryette.
Not really a fan of anything Peavey.. I've also looked at the Engl ones and don't care for those.. Roland gp-100 is kind of dumb and the ADA Nuno used to use looks too confusing. Bogner fish I thought would be cool, but I can't find one and the Lee Jacksons I can't find either.
Thanks for any suggestions guys!
