I have two of the original Sons, a Grandson and a Thoebe preamp. Along with the James Bongiorno - designed Sumo Andromeda amp and Athena preamp. All great gear! On the turntable is a Coral B777 mc cartridge - same as the Sleeping Beauty. The Andromeda is driving a late-production pair of DCM Time Windows (52779, 52780). Sound quality equal to today’s five-figure gear!
