Gs,
If you can score this Modwright preamp for around $1500.00 your getting a very good piece for very little money. However, if your budget can go up to $3000.00 I would recommend that might consider the Audio Valve Eclipse which retails for around $5600.00, but does come for around $3000.00 or less here on the GON. Take a look at my review of it for details regarding it's sonics, I liked it much more then the Modwright 36.5, and it took a preamp that cost another $15000.00 more to replace it in my system.
