Bent Audio Autoformer vs Tube Pre


Has anyone compared the two? I'm thinking of building a fully balanced Bent Autoformer unit.

If you have compared the two, what do you think?

Amazing to me that one auto former line stage simply kills all other actives period. Wow, how have you found the time to listen to every single preamp made since the beginning of time in all the near infinite number of systems friendly to such a device. You have lots of time on your hands.

In addition, it seems your preference for sound is the standard. Most impressive!
Reading comprehension IS your friend.

"When properly utilized in a passive friendly system, TVC and autoformer linestages usually best any active preamp regardless of technology."

Please use your own advice and read my statement. I clearly stated in a passive friendly system. You are welcome to your opinion and others will rightly find your conclusion pure hyperbole.
