I'm sure it is wonderful. Soulution makes unique gear...

Thanks Jérôme, yes that is a Soulution 520 preamp & it is absolutely a lovely bit of gear. Once it starts to settle from being slightly warm & detailed out of the box the musicality & sweetness start to very subtly show their traits. Anybody want to swap?
Jeff the lamp was from Beacon Lighting, it's an LED as more reliable & easier on the environment. Great little lamp it is too as you can see.
Now that is a system that I would love to hear too. I've never had the pleasure of hearing DynAudio
Thanks everyone for the kind words, it's great to be able to share with all & everyone that posts. I look to their gear & just think wonderful, I wonder what it sounds like.
