I THINK they may have asked to put my credit card on file, but certainly never charged it in any way.
I REALLY wanted to like the preamp, as it was built like a tank, and they had a lifetime warranty to the original owner at that point.
I... just couldn't get the thing to make music in my system - was just harsh & mechanical sounding, no matter what source, or which inputs or outputs I used (RCA or XLR).
Plus? LOVED the solid remote.
Ended up returning it, and purchasing an Audio Research line stage at a different local dealer.
Felt bad not giving the first dealer business, as they were VERY accommodating. WOULD have given THEM the business, but I couldn't afford the Joule Electra preamp they had on display that I REALLY wanted. :(
