Thanks !
As Dominic noted there is no sound quality difference ...
And as noted logistically a DB 25 puts all the cabling into one outer sleeve .

But since you asking about an outboard mic pre :::
Consider that while the DB 25 does allow an additional 8 channels of analog connections ,,,,,, It does not add any additional channels of simultaneous use , that is still going to be 8 at any one time...
So if you are looking to run an additional mic pre to get more than 8 channels of simultaneous mic input, you would want to do through the ADAT connections.
