Don Sachs older D2 preamp vs his new version

I cant comment on the comparisons, however, Don is currently not taking any more orders for newly built gear. I've been in line for his Custom Phono stage and waiting for him to complete it.

Jay I mean no disrespect but I talked to Don and that’s just not true. It may take a few months or until spring. From what I was told he’s semi retired and working at his own speed.

Maybe I should add I have access to a 9 month old Dons Dachs D2 and a 4 year old D2, so there is no wait time.

No offense taken, he said she said, however he told me specifically that if you weren't in his current build queue he's not building anymore, and if you are in his queue, please be patient as now he's only spending about 30-40% time working.  YMMV.
