Sorry!I don't know how I overlooked that. Preamp noted is Counterpoint SA5000. It has certainly brought lots of magic to my listening, and I was frankly unprepared for how little I might miss it with the MAP doing all duties.
Now that I've had a couple weeks of fun with the MAP's "magic" of involving, musical detail without fatigue or edge, I am due to go back for further critical A/B with an ear toward identifying anything I might be giving up. I wanted to get a word out about my initial succes with the MAP, but will post another followup in this thread within a week after more comparison.
