For the really savvy Folks out there, please give me your unbiased opinion (yes yes, I know it's an oxymoron).
Do digital & solid state amplification synergise well?

E.g. a new Primare Pre32 (as digital as you get them) plus a dated Mark Levinson 23.5 (25 years old).
Same can be asked about a new RC1572 and an 18 year old RMB1075.

Listening to the combinations, it honestly sounds like "something could sound better".  But what...? And more importantly: Why?
