    Thanks for the heads-up on this. I placed an order as well. I've been wanting to move into the "tube" sound, so thanks russman...

    Quick question....can this ELP be used in a HT type set up? If so, how? Connect it between the processor and the amp I suppose? Volume still controllable by remote? Can it be bypassed? Curious....as a total tube newbie...

    It's a 2ch tube preamp. Whether or not you can 'bypass' it, depends on what the other preamps in your HT can do.

    Cheers,

    So ELP doesnt have a pass through switch or something so that hte tubes dont have to be on and the input signal is just passed through the amp....oh well...that would have been a cool feature so you can just use the tubes for stereo when desired. Thx.

    Man! This really looks like a great deal! And I bet it'd sound great on my Klipsch! (If only I had an amp.) Thanks for doing this for the group, RuSsMaN!!

    I'll just sit back and drool and be totally envious while all of y'all brag on your new pre! :p

    Tour, your "moonwalk" skills automatically put you in the select trendy club. ;)
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.
