I haven't found anyone yet, but I also haven't found someone that has heard them either

I have. I own a Giscours. Samuel is correct.
Well I will add one I think is pretty good. It isn't anywhere near as expensive as the others mentioned, but I think equipment should be a balance of price and performance. It is fully balanced and tubed, the Cary SLP-2002.

Does Shindo have any Northeast retailer?

The US importer is Jonathan Halpern at Tone Imports. He is a great guy and will point you in the right direction.
I replace my accuphase c-2800 preamp with a lamm LL2 deluxe and the lamm lack in detail with high's/lows until I replace the stock tubes with mullards. The Lamm LL2 deluxe is an outstanding preamp when it consist of mullard tubes. The tube depot carries the black sable mullards that are truly the best tubes I have ever had in my preamps. It totally change the quality of the Lamm LL2 Deluxe.
