One of the greatest bargains in this crazy hobby. Having
owned AI, ARC, LAMM, CAT, JOULE, and ATMA-SPHERE tube
linestages, I feel this preamp can compete with most anything
out there. Though not audio jewelry (I like the RCA Red color
scheme), the engineering and circuit design are done by
someone who knows what they are doing. Don't
hesitate to buy on sound quality considerations - I just have
not had a problem with the weight, yes they are small and not
too heavy.
