The Ref 6 is simply an amazing preamp. Yes, sorry to say it to the "they keep coming out with new models all the time" crowd but it is a quantum leap over the Ref5se. And yes, I did say that about the improvement the 5se made over the 5. I did not say it about a 5 over a 3. That was a mild improvement, not a big deal.
So before someone says "just wait for the Ref7", yes, I would expect it to be an improvement again, and will likely buy one. But for now, this is by far the best preamp I have heard. It makes all my gear sound better, and records sound incredible.
