Schiit Freya plus preamp , very impressive preamps?

I am orinally looking for a tube preamps my budget is 2k. On this price most of the preamps with balance output cost at least 4K and more.So I decided to audition the Freya, it has balance input and output ,even with the stock JJ 6sn7 is already good. My friend told me also Aric Audio can make me a costumize balance preamps. But it might double the price of Freya.

I was reading on a Sterophile comments section that the Freya+ will be reviewed by the mag. I think the reviewer hinted that the Freya+ measured well.

I use the Freya+ with a Benchmark AHB2 and this combo has grown on me. I am going to keep the Freya+ around for a while.

With regards to bloom, the Freya+ has much more than my other preamps and I would not want any more (too much of a good thing). My AHB2 is highly detailed, and this seems to pair well with the Freya+.
