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+.
