Tube Research Labs Dude vs. Shindo Labs preamps


I am in the market to look for a tube preamp. I have narrow down my choices to Tube Research Labs Dude and a comparable price Shindo Labs.

Can anybody provide me your experience to help me to make a better decision? Better yet, have anybody compared them side by side before?

Thank!

One more vote for Shindo.I had the entry level preamp.The distributor is A-ONE along with their products.
I do own a Tron now and cant ever see owning anything else.
Tthean, as I said before, there are two very happy Dude owners (latest generation) in the Dallas area. No issues with fit and finish, customer service, etc. Gallant_diva is one. Ask Paul for the other. His name is Huy, but I have lost his contact data. They both have very expensive systems whatever that is worth....
It seems if Cdente had an unsatisfactory experience with TRL`s products/service he has every right to voice his opinion as much as those who repeatedly rave about them. Glory, what is it he should get over if he has a legitimate complaint?
Chucky,

Get out of your play pen and start walking and acting like a grown man. No room for cry babies here and members are tired of your alligator tears.

Ship your blinkin Dude to TRl and have them sell it to a more worthy owner.

You are a Bitter Dude LOL
