Yes, that price range, but I like also to know some above that... maybe
I can get one second hand...

If you are going to say that (and I'm not trying to argue with you about
the truth of what you say), it would be nice if you would post
suggestions for a good affordable solid state preamp. I believe that
schoappied is looking for something in the sub 100 eur price range.
thanks, I like your drawing skills ;)
I've a little amp for my guitar, also with a phone input option... can I
use the art tube mp also for that one, guitar (input) and phone? The
preamp will make the sound maybe better, or doesn't make that sense?
And my guitar amp has not an master channel... can I use the art tube
mp, to use for example rakkarack with my amp?
Bear in mind that ART preamps usually run their single tube "voltage
starved" killing headroom/freq response. I haven't looked at the specs
but I bet that they also choose the wrong tube if they did go for
12AX7s since 12AU7s sound much better at lower plate voltages.
You can ask any tube guru you know about that, I am sure he'll confirm
what I am saying.
I wasn't aware of those issues until I started building tube amps
myself and experimenting with different supply voltages.
I'd rather buy an all solid state device with a low supply voltage, it
would sound way better.
