pre-amp with tube?

[new2thegame]

Whats up every1?

I'm new to recording on a PC. I'm just wondering what pre-amp w/ tube you would recommend for recording vocals. I have a conensor mic right now, and I'm looking for something with good quality around $300 - $500

hey barock, is that one any good? What I have heard is that it has all kinds of nice features, but when it comes to sound for vocal it is not too good. since i have never used or heard it i´m curious to hear what you think about it.

well, it is better than what I used to do before.... using my Behringer MX1804X Mixer as Preamp.... the sound si pretty clear and it is thicker then it used to be. You can also choose special tube-fx for different instruments like keyboard, guitar or whatever...
