Noticed alot of Sonic Frontiers being unloaded

Bingo! They are focusing on HT and, I've heard, are getting out of the tube end. Their pre-amps are great. I've been lusting after the 3SE since their output impedence is only 90 ohms which would match nicely to my amp's 2200 ohm input impedence. With a new house, the timings just not right. One thing to bear in mind: The SF warranty is not transferrable. Bummer.

The above responses are accurate - just thought I'd mention though that even though the warranty may not be transferrable, I've found them great to deal with - I thought I had a problem with my Line 3 and they phoned me immediatley following my email and were keen to help. It turned out to be only a fuse gone which I replaced easily, but I felt that were the problem greater, they would fix it with no hassles - I felt covered.

I currently own a Kora Eclipse preamp one of the first models and was wondering which was a better preamp Im looking into the SFL-2 preamp One thing I really dislike about the Kora you need the remote to control everthing

Though all SFI gear was very good and in some cases excellent,there are no people that were in the developement of SFI.They all have moved on.I believe Glenn Dolick was the last one and he left 4 momths ago.SFI is really no longer since it was bought out by Paradyne.They have been concetrating on the Anthem line for HT.I would suspect there are no real personal that are familiar with any of the SFI tube gear.Too bad as it was once one of the best comapnies to deal with.
