I owned a Paragon System E preamp, now sold. Sounded good not sure why I sold it.

I've heard of the Model E, what was it like?

It has been so long I don't remember the sound. Physically it was low profile with an outboard power supply.
I posted a link to one for sale - not mine as far as I know.
Wow, that is a low profile for tube unit.
Wonder what it's selling for.

See below for additional details quoted from a 6 Moons review for a Juicy Music preamp.
"As Mark Deneen, the owner of Juicy Music, said to me in an email: "1974 was a loooong time ago." That is when Mark Deneen formed a small company, Paragon Audio in San Carlos/California and came to market with a new tube preamplifier based on a design licensed from Bruce Moore. This must have taken considerable courage at the time since tube equipment was fast disappearing and the only company still really serious about it then was the formidable Audio Research. Despite these odds, Paragon sold about 400 Paragon 12 preamps and 250 System E preamps."
Since there is only mentioned the model 12, I wonder how many model 12A were sold?
