Anyone famaliar with the manufacturer,and in particular

impressive.The advertised 10 day audition is appealing.

Here's a tip, after reading in the last review that mass loading was helpful, I put three heavy marble bookends on top of my AH2.0, which sits on top of three Hyperion Magnetic floater discs. It worked! The sound is more relaxed,natural, and focused.
After years of satisfaction, and a bit reluctant to change since I was so pleased already, I am sending in my unit for a full upgrade (power supply, Clarity Caps, Vishay, fuses and fuse holder, Furmen IEC etc. to bring my unit up to the level of a 2.2nBcvg. as always Victor was great at helping me decide. Wish me luck!

Hey! Good luck, Joe. Let us know how it sounds when you get it resettled into your system.
Curiously missing from the latest review was any comparison to any other pre-amp, despite the fact the reviewer had two EAR pre-amps in his system. Given the price point of the EAR pre-amps, and the piece under review, a direct comparison would have been appropriate. I understand the reviewer purchased the unit, but people buy components for different reasons, not all to replace an existing piece. A comparison would have been helpful, and was curiously missing.
Because its not my job to contact the reviewer and ask him what he thought "between the lines." Its the reviewers job to write an informative review that includes comparisons with other similarly priced components. When those comparisons are not in the review I begin to think nasty thoughts like the reviewer did not want to offend the manufacturer of the previously prized piece. Why should I ask him for something he should have included in the review in the first place?
