It's not close to the most expensive component in my rig, it's not the second most expensive, it's tied with my 3rd most expensive... it's my Supratek Cortese LCR, and I'd part with everything else before this preamp. In part because the guy who hands builds this in Australia has been at this for some time and when he retires what out there's may very likely be all that exists. But also it's just a beautiful sounding piece.
