Perseus Preamp

I am looking at 2 tube preamps to match with my B&K 200.2 and my Klipsch RF-7s. The Rogue Perseus and the Juicy Music Peach II. I have read great reviews on both but the Rogue allows me to keep the unit off when in HT bypass mode. Anyone heard both units? I listen to mainly singer songwriter type music. (Damien Rice, David Gray etc.)

So you have heard the Perseus. Your thoughts? How does it compare to Modwright or Juicy Music?

I demoed the Rogue Perseus. I have a B and K 2220 and a VPI scout as my source with Sonus Faber Concertos. I felt the Persues was only slighly better then my existing preamp which was a B and K PT3 series II even going from solid state to tube. I ended up going with a Granite Audio 770FP..this was a major upgrade...I listen to mostly jazz and blues..I was blown away. If you are going to pay retail for the Perseus (around 1800) and can spend a few more hundred I highly recommend the granite audio product.
