I did post somewhere that I popped the iMod into the dock in the Amphora, and then used the Amphora as a pre-amp to feed the P-51 mustang with an RCA-mini interconnect. And the P-51 sounded pretty much like it does when running my iMod/pVcap dock directly into the P-51. If anything it was slightly better with the iMod/Amphora as pre-amp, because the signal didn't have to go through both an LOD cable into the Vcaps and then through a mini-mini to get into the my Mustang (the number of IC was reduced from two to one).
So, the Amphora as a pre-amp took away nothing from the sound of the amp that it is driving, at least when that amp is a P-51. Later, after burn-in is done, I will hook it up between my PS Audio Digital Link III DAC and Woo GES and try it as a preamp there too.
