Manley 300B Neo Classic : any love ?

[Jerome W]

I'm really excited about this order.
I made more search on the web about 300B preamps to discover that they are very difficult to design and build, hence how few companies make one.
Getting to the point of it is compared to climbing the Everest ! This is probably what Ken Shindo had in mind when he made his Petrus, top of the line preamp using WE 300Bs.
I found a few users reviews on forums stating that they trully reached a summit in musicality with the Manley preamp.
Got a mail from EveAnna yesterday telling me that my preamp was ready to ship ( this lady is incredible ! ).
Life is Good !

Congratulations Jerome, just read this and it's great you have so much to be excited about. Am very much looking forward to hearing about it, hope it has the music in it big time, I'm sure there are more than a few of us out there looking for another possible answer in this particular part of the chain as surely it is the ruler of the domain of space and time and a big chunk of musical magic can be found here... Bonne chance.

I completely agree : the preamp is the heart of our
electronics.

Hey Jérôme, I came so close to going down the road of Manley, all the pretty pictures, the huge appreciation in reviews of their products, the dedication of the people behind the product.....this thread makes me wonder why I didn't, but I do know that answer, my holy grail was digital. If I may, I would like to invite you to my place, my abode, chez moi, to hear what I was chasing. In comparison, if I pass your way I would love to hear your artisan amps as your flair of French & English has piqued my curiosity

Kev : Thanks a lot !
Of course you are warmly invited to my home if you plan a trip to Paris.
We'll surely have a great time.

Jerome, congrats on the new Manley Pre coming your way. I can't wait for your thoughts and a review.
Since taking my first plunge into the tube waters with my Chinook, I will be "VERY" interested in your impressions.
