How do you like the Soloos system ? Compared it to any high-class cd-players like Wadia 381 or S7 beforehand ?
Have you ever compared the Boulder 1010 to other top-notch pre-amps ? How do you like the onboard phono stage ?

Khyris: like you Lichtenstein and Warhol stuff on the wall. Boulder is nice gear as well ;-)
