Anyone famaliar with the manufacturer,and in particular this pre amp.The credentials and testimonials seem impressive.The advertised 10 day audition is appealing.
It's been mentioned before in various threads that Joseph can work wonders with older, as well as newer, tuners. If you have an older,analog tuner, for @ $300.00 Joseph can turn it into one of your favorite used sources. I find myself listening to my local NPR college station quite often into the late hours.
There also seems to be more dynamic range in that sometimes familar recordings go suddenly louder or softer than I am used to hearing on other equipment
That's exactly what happens when your equipment is quiet.
You're able to talk (without shouting) at normal conversation levels while music plays.
Running dedicated 10-2 lines helped further, the only thing I did was drop the ground inside my preamp at the IEC to eliminate a hum and I made a cutom black acrylic lid for mine.
