Agreed. I went from act2.2 to gat and the gat made the act's treble seem quite shrill/strident. Gat is a lot more natural, delicate with more body and a lot more gutsy bass. The sound is warmer and less steely. Also the gat makes far better sense of everything. Going back to the act2.2 it can actually sound muddled with some music compared to the gat. There is a big difference between the two imo/ime. Very different sounding preamps.
