My experience with this unit is that
1. It is a very good preamp--I found it to be better than the Adcom GFP 750 (even modded), but a bit less than a pass X 2.5.
2. The CD player is very revealing. Renders detail very well. Was better than my modded Adcom GCD 750, but a bit less than my YBA CD-3.
Soundstage is excellent. Imaging is great, and tonal accuracy is excellent. On less than great cd pressings it can sound a bit forward.
