Atmas-phere MP-3 MKIII --- opinions?

This is a follow up to my previous post:

I'm leaning toward the Atmosphere MP-3 MKIII to replace my current solid state preamp.

Preamp: Musical Fidelity M6PRE (to be replaced)
Amp: Musical Fidelity M6PRX
Speakers: Vandersteen 3a Signatures
Analog: VPI traveler turntable with Ortofon Bronze MM cartridge
Digital: Ayre CX-7 CD player

Lots of good reviews for the Atmas-phere MP3. But I'm also reading that the power and V-cap upgrades are essential, the phono section is noisy and the system is sensitive to power cord changes.

I guess I really want to get the Atmas-phere and am hoping folks here can share their experiences to help me decide. Or other comparable tube preamp suggestions?

The other day after dinner with friends in Atlanta we went to one of their homes, where we demonstrated the Atma-Sphere UV-1 in his very high end system. The preamp acquitted itself very well even before being warmed up. They will have it for a few more days to try in their systems.
