I'm not sure, but I think it's probably not worth the added expense to
purchase an expensive preamp unless you're using the MKH series mikes.

Lang, Walt and All,
Thanks for your comments on this. I am using Sennheiser ME series mics with
the TCD-D10, those mics are not as good quality as the MKH series of course.
Would I still be likely to get a lower noise floor if using these mics with
a pre-amp?
