Newbie here, thanks for the review on this unit, I have the one with the mono balanced input/output and was disappointed to see the measurements it produced. Has anyone managed to improve this unit and care to share? I bought mine second hand at less than half the original price and upgraded the tubes but was never completely satisfied.. My little dot mk2 makes a better preamp but damn do I love the look of this thing! I am in two minds whether to sell it on or look to improve its design. If there is some basic mods I can do to improve this I'd love to know what people have done? I currently have mine fed by an v2 SMSL SU-8 and it's connected to a serviced late edition Quad 606 (which is connected to some modified Monacor Katana M1's) It definitely sounds better after 45-60 minutes warming up, if this is the transformer or tubes warming up I don't know maybe it's just my ears lol. I'm tempted to try the SU-8 direct into the Quad but VU meters are so pretty
