I have the Shindo Auriges and it is the best preamp I have ever owned. Connects me emotionally with music unlike any other I have heard. Have used it with VTL-ST-85, ASL Hurricanes and Odessey Khartego's. Sounds great with all of them. Also it has a great moving magnet phono stage unless you get the line stage only version. You will not be dissapointed by this Pre

I like the Shindo Aurieges, but I think there are better values out there. The Modwright LS-100, and the TRL Dude would, in my opinion, be better bang for buck.

I tend to agree with Wilson. I've owned the Auriges twice and while its very good, it has flaws and there are better pre amps that can be had for less. I preferred an Audion premiere to my Shindo by a wide margin and the Audion gave me an extremely good phono stage. I actually preferred the Audion to the Dude Wilson mentions as well, but synergy may have been off as I expected more from the Dude.
