I'm a Salagar dealer and first heard them with the EAR Acute player direct and that setup worked well enough for me to buy a pair. It's worked great in my store as well. Also, if I may continue to srill a bit, (and I do this about once every 3 years) Jeff Rowland's $2700 Capri preamp with xlr outputs is an awesome matchup and a really great preamp, notably better than previous $3900 JR Concerto preamp.
