Transcendent "The Masterpiece" Preamp feedback?

Hey folks, I am really interested in building this kit, and my curiosity is really centered around trying a 300b based preamp in my system. The kit's been out for a couple of years, but I can't seem to find any details on the preamp's sonic qualities, other than how "quiet" it is. 

Can any of you out there who have built / are using this preamp describe it's sonic qualities and attributes? Inquiring minds want to know!

I've been wondering the same thing. I built the GG preamp a couple of years ago, using substantially better output caps, silver hookup wire, Goldpoint attenuator and selector switch, and NOS Amperex 12AU7 tubes. It is simply a great sounding line stage, and deathly silent.

Makes me wonder how much better "The Masterpiece" can be. Hopefully, someone who's built one will respond.
