Santa's sleigh was weighed down by a 96 lb shipping carton this year so he made an early dropoff on Christmas Eve [emoji1787]
Esoteric C-02X preamp that approaching 40 hours in, has me a bit scared at the prospect that it will sound even better after I put 275-350 hours on it as Esoteric gear always improves.....
A phenomenal preamp and big upgrade over the performance of the C-02 I owned for a few years previously!
