I have had the entire Herron set up. I went to digital only and sold the preamp and phono stage and kept the M1A. I run a MSB Analog Dac straight into the M1A's. The last piece of herron I bought was the mono amps and I think it was the best piece. Very smooth, great tone, very easy to listen too. Sweet sounding without being overly lush. Does not do low impedance speakers well however. Also, very highly recommend the Stillpoint ultra mini's to replace the rubber feet and I also added the thicker HRS damping plates on top. The casework of herron is where he can save costs otherwise these would be much more expensive, the vibration isolation above was a nice improvement in detail. There is also a wonderful synergy of all the pieces together. I would not recommend the Herron Cables for this set up, the electronics are so much better. I ran Audience AU24se with Powerchord SE power cables and was very happy.
