Tube Research Labs Dude vs. Shindo Labs preamps


I am in the market to look for a tube preamp. I have narrow down my choices to Tube Research Labs Dude and a comparable price Shindo Labs.

Can anybody provide me your experience to help me to make a better decision? Better yet, have anybody compared them side by side before?

Thank!

Latinsamba,
By all accounts the U.K. made Tron 7 preamp is wonderful. Any one of these three preamps are cetainly good enough to base a system around,you would`nt go wrong with any of them.
Latinsamba1, tell us more why you opted for the Tron. What were the Shindo pre's lacking in your rig?
He didn't have Shindo in his rig. He's talking about hearing things in different stores. Just typical forum behavior.
No, I'm the distributor. Click on Latinsamaba1's system and you'll see he didn't opt for anything mentioned... I've heard thousands of systems at shows, shops and in customer systems but I would be quite cautious making any presumptions about sonics of any of those pieces without living with them for a period of time. Especially picking out what one component in a unknown system is or isn't doing. Pointless post is my point. Grasping at straws proves nothing nor is it productive.
