Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go?


I'm preparing to replace my SS preamp with a tube unit and have read with great interest many threads on this board. This is where I learned about Don Sachs model 2 preamps. They sound like what I'm looking for and those who own them consistently express their satisfaction with them.

Now I've just been reading and learning about the Supratek lineup. Wow. These also sound like fantastic works of art. Leaving me with a new question about which way to go. 

Thoughts? Advice? Experience? Anyone care to share?

Sounds awesome.I will mention the biggest change in my system recently - a Yeti 1400 lithium-ion battery generator. It generates a perfect 60 hz sine wave and lowers the noise floor (I never knew I had a noise floor before). It has taken my system to the next level. I hope you can track one down just to try it. I have my preamp, power amp and Quad 2805s plugged into it.
Thanks for continuing to keep the Flame Alive and sharing all the info on your system config.
hey Markus...i just saw one on Amazon - Yeti 1400 lithium iron battery generator for $2500...ad then you need $400 solar panel to recharge it?
@audio123 Really looking forward to hearing the conclusion of the preamp comparison...  please do post the update.
Regarding the yeti 1400, no you don't need a solar panel to recharge it. That's simply an optional element of the power system that you can buy. It charges from the wall socket. And price-wise it should be somewhere around 16 or 17 hundred. 1600 would be a good deal. I think list is around 2,000. REI sells them for people who want to go camping and solar panels are handy that way. But the yeti is a good thing to have in case of a power outage. Because it can charge your cell phone or your keep your refrigerator running.
Thanks Markus for the info....going to look into to that item...keep in touch ...I like your Audio style and advice!!!...Peace
