Thoughts from Joule preamp owners?

There hasn't been much chat lately about Joule preamps, so any thoughts from experienced owners, good, bad, or indifferent? Thanks in advance.

Both are excellent and have very similar sonic signature. The difference is that 450 is better and well worth the extra cost. Rarely, if ever I auditioned, not to mentioned, owned so musically involving components. I close my eyes and not so much musicians in my room as I am "there" in acoustic hall, fully involved into music. My two cents Mike

I have a pair of Spectron monoblocks running Sasha by David Wilson. Extraordinary combination, the best system I ever owned. Many people complain that Wilsons do not have enough of dynamic range and deep bass or musically not involving - not with this pre and power amps !!! Mike
