I don't know what a 'Samson' is. Another pre-amp?

Are you wanting a comparison between mics or trying to make some point
about your marvellous valve pre-amp? If so it will be the cheap mic
through the valve pre-amp and the expensive mic through some nasty solid
state one. And whatever else you can do to persuade others that valves
have some magic properties...
