I love it so far, but my only serious listening has been done with the Senn HD600 phones. Bass is rock solid, soundstage(if you could call it that with cans) is wide. My hearing is not extended enough to comment on the highs, but sweet comes to mind. The most stunning thing I am hearing at present is the details discovered on discs I thought I knew well. It is a real joy to hear these subtle musical cues, that were before only heard in live performance. I attend a lot of live musical events from opera to recitals to jazz concerts...... almost all acoustic in nature. This linestage seems to have the headroom that live performance has always had for me. I think those cobalt B7s are very special, and Paul's power supply keeps noise out of the sonic picture. Here is a pic showing it sitting on my piano. More later......
