So back in ? 1985 or so I owned a Hafler DH110 I built from a kit. I liked it a lot.
For some insane mind fart I wanted a Sony new 'flagship' digital preamp. SO I traded in my Hafler and got the Sony. After a few months of playing with the bells and whistles, I quit listening to music.
After a few more months I wondered why.. And realized that Sony preamp was a total POS musically.
SO I got rid of it and bought a Counterpoint preamp. Nice but liked to die from power supply issues.. (too many times)
Anyway My greatest regret was trading in the Hafler.
