Here comes the Dude. What to expect?

I have my new Dude preamp in the Post and coming my way this week. It is my last component buy.

It has been told to me that the Dude had bigger balls than the AR Ref 3/5. Can the Dude keep up and run by some of the better preamps out there? If so what?

Hopefully there are some new Dude owners out there that can pipe in.

Gary, nice poetic review...reminds me of the new "flarf" school of poetry where they throw odd word combinations at Google and then transcribe the results. It is stark contrast to your more traditional, detailed footer description. Any current impressions? What did the Dude add to your system that your previous pre did not?

Now that I've been schooled on the history of the Dude and it's name I take back my sly remark about the F bombs.

The Dude now is over the 350 hr. mark and I must say it has added the final piece to my system. Organic sound is the main ingredient in the mix.

It is a keeper.
