With great anticipation I ran out a bought a copy of the new Elvis Costello & Allen Toussaint CD "The River in Reverse". Played it on stereo in the office and even ripped to an mp3 and copid it to my iPod to listen to on the train ride home. I must confess to being both a long time Elvis Costello fan and a major Allen Toussaint fan, so this CD is like mana from heaven to me.

Hey all,
I'm looking to get my first nice audio system. I've been looking around a bit at stores here in NYC and I've started narrowing down the speaker choices. Right now, my list is the following:

Can anybody weigh in on what to expect with this preamp. Have not been able to locate any reviews.
Thanks in advance for your opinions
