Valhalla2 vs Freya+ as a preamp

I’m currently using the Valhalla 2 as a preamp in my big system. 
I love it. Has anyone compared the Valhalla 2 to the Freya+
and is there a substantial sonic improvement?  My goal is 

holographic imaging and tube magic. If you’ve been in my shoes 

feel free to provide input.

That really the final test. Let us know how it turns out.

Price is not always indicative of quality.

BTW - I owned the Topping pre90 preamp for a while, along with my current Benchmark LA4, CODA 07x, and Schitt Freya+

The Valhalla 2 can be used as a single input preamp. I've used it with a Will Vincent/Dynaco ST-70. The V2 works great. Plenty of gain. no noise. Plus you can plug in your 'phones. Great piece of kit for not a lot of scratch.
