anyone heard it (apart from the owner).... would be good to hear some thoughs on how it sounds... ECC88 preamps can be very dry sounding and system dependant a bit more than usual... but at the same time some of the best i heard were with ECC88

Hi Gordan - haven't heard this pre but Hymes kit is excellent. I have the Paul Hymes phono stage - it is very good indeed - very detailed, engaging - usual stuff, infact the best phono stage I have had in y system beyond the Groove for eg - outstanding component specification.
