I have heard that Simaudio stuff is good but even if someone new about this I would try to hear one for myself before shelling out that kind of money for one. just an opinion. But i do know the high end puplications usually rate their stuff real well if that means anything to you. It does seem weard that nobodies got any dirrect info on this unit though. Usually you have more replies than you would expect when asking about a rare component.
