Has anyone listened to the coincident linestage?

He'll be at RMAF this year for the first time, and has posted in another thread that he will be exhibiting the Pure Refs with Frankensteins, his linestage and phono pre.

Hi,
I`ve owned this preamp for 11 months and it`s remarkable in my opinion.I`ts design is minimalist(only two source inputs and no remote) but the sound is so natural(organic) pure and transparent.The tonality is dead on with an exceptional sense of that elusive you are there realism. The design is very simple, transformer volume control(dual)- interstage transformer-two 101d (DHT) single gain stage-output transformer, that`s`s it, ultra simple. It really seems to allow the emotional aspect of music to be fully expressed. I hope you get a chance to hear it your self in the near future

Thank you for all your responses. I wish I could hear it before I shell out 5g's.

It is just an outstanding, quiet, natural sounding piece of equipment. I got mine about a month ago. I am using it with the Frankenstein. The amps sound now like a good 30W SET monos, but the extra gain does not deteriorate the sound. Still early (only 1 month), but my impression so far is that this is a first class preamp.

Jacano,
You are going to become further impressed as time goes on with the the additional hours of break in.I`ve had the Statement/Frankenstein pair for 14 months yet my appreciation continues to deepen still. These two components are world class individually and supreme as a pair. My problem is turning off the system, even after 3 or 4 hours of listening when I know I should go to bed(I get up at 6AM for work) the music is so natural and involving I find myself saying okay just one more song... I`m sure you understand.
