I have had the 7 series line and phono stages and they are 2 of the best pieces of gear I've ever had. Thomasheisig's description is right on, these are transparent, stay out of the way pieces, utterly invisible in the signal path. Stan doesn't have the propensity as some to change every 3 mo's with upgrades etc, and you'll not find a nicer guy or better support. Klynes are one of the best kept secrets in audio. You MAY find better, but not remotely close to this price range.
