I own a presonus fp10 audio interface and my recordings sound pretty good, compared to what I use to have (m-audio 1010, behringer and nady mic preamps). I have started to look into buying a tube preamp to my current setup. I came to the realization that I will not find anything under $400. I even considered buying a mic preamp kit, but I just don't have the time to build it. Last night I came across on ebay an Xiang Sheng 708B Stereo Tube Headphone Pre Amplifier

this preamp looks very promising, but I will need to alter the input and output of this device. This is what I was thinking. I could run my condenser mic into the front input of the firepod (input 1), so I can get the phantom power to enable the mic. I would then run a trs cable from the back of the firepod into this preamp and then back into the firepod.
Just wondering what you guys think. I've gotten great and honest feedback here.
thanks
